Sure enough.
BSD make requires quotes around the filename in .include ".depend" but
if one removes the leading dot on "include" it can't find .depend if the
filename is still quoted.
This works in BSD make altho its not doing anything that isn't
automatically done:
.include ".depend"
Above is apparently the same as this in GNU make and accepted by BSD:
include .depend
This does not work in BSD as it seems to be trying to find ".depend"
with quotes, which doesn't exist:
include ".depend"
