Extend dependency tracking so that .o files are rebuilt.

jeremyhylton · jeremyhylton · commit c18fde5d8298 · 2002-06-13T17:32:20.000Z
Two new tests are needed:

Don't skip building an extension if any of the depends files are newer
than the target.

Pass ext.depends to compiler.compile() so that it can track individual
files.
