Your suggestion is definitely clearer; unfortunately it doesn't work with older versions of GCC (GCC 2.x), which don't support the -MF or -MT flags.
However, in the next release of GNU make (the one after 3.81) I'm planning on dropping support for K&R C and modifying the code to require a C89 compiler at least. At that time it might be worthwhile to modify the manual to assume a GCC 3.x compiler as well.
