Subject: [PATCH 47/89] libs/util: Fix parallel build between flex/bison and CC
rules
flex/bison generate two targets, and when those targets are
prerequisite of other rules they are considered independently by make.
We can have a situation where the .c file is out-of-date but not the
.h, git checkout for example. In this case, if a rule only have the .h
file as prerequiste, make will procced and start to build the object.
In parallel, another target can have the .c file as prerequisite and
make will find out it need re-generating and do so, changing the .h at
the same time. This parallel task breaks the first one.
To avoid this scenario, we put both the header and the source as
prerequisite for all object even if they only need the header.
