Either you've managed to completely obliterate your
/var/state/sorcery/depends (in which case I would recommend a rebuild
at your nearest convenience), your version of make is completly broken,
or you're using an extremely old version sorcery since the code to do
bottom-up spell checking has been there for a long time.

I just tried it and it can give the appearance of being sequential
from gaze installed since thats the default ordering make uses in the
absense of depends, and since a number of spells have very few depends,
especially the ones that dont get recast very often, it can appear that
its just iterating through them. Try fixing something you know depends
on other spells like mplayer of xfree86.
