I use -MD (as you can see), but the problem is that the default file 
names used with -MD are not the ones I want (-MT overrides this.)  If I 
recall correctly, it only matters for a handful of files, but it really 
matters there.

One option for dealing with that would be to move the files into place 
after they are generated.

*Sigh* Okay, I'll look into this.
