I made some changes in wmk.src this morning, maybe you could get

It's a long term issue.
With wml-1.7.0, one could easily write Makefile fragments via the -M
option.

After 1.7.0, i plan to implement a more sophisticated mechanism.
WMk could read and write those Makefile fragments, which contain
dependancies.
