Could be either.

I'm suprised to hear this.

The `dashmstdout' mode for depcomp should invoke the compiler twice,
once with -M, for the dependencies, and once without, for the .o.

If this still fails for you could you try to see what is wrong?
One way might be to start by running depcomp with `sh -x'...
