build fails on OS X as follows:

[starting from a blank slate]

$ git clone git://repo.or.cz/nasm.git nasm

$ cd nasm

$ sh autogen.sh

$ sh configure

$ make alldeps
[...]
tools/mkdep.pl: cannot determine path for dependency:
include/compiler.h -> config/config.h
make: *** [alldeps] Error 25

$ make
make: *** No rule to make target `config.h', needed by `asm/nasm.o'.  Stop.

$ ls config/
config.h	config.h.in	msvc.h		unknown.h

$ ls include/
compiler.h	hashtbl.h	insns.h		md5.h		nasmint.h	opflags.h	rbtree.h	saa.h		tables.h
disp8.h		iflag.h		labels.h	nasm.h		nasmlib.h	raa.h		rdoff.h		strlist.h	ver.h

do the dependencies actually change frequently enough
to warrant this overly complicated auto generation?
