And in fact, what you may want to do is have your script invoke gcc
*twice*, once with -E, and then a second time with -c, because otherwise
the build will die the first time it tries to link together two or more non-existent
.o files.

Using 'make -k' *might* also work, but will leave the build log output littered
with a *lot* of error messages.

Or explain why you're doing this - there may be a simpler way to achieve
your goal. For instance, if you're trying to build a cross-reference of what
.c files include what .h directly or indirectly, there's already specialized tools
for doing that sort of thing, such as 'cxref'.
