Nope.  Unless the output is mangled in order, the link commands are
simply issued too early.  Looks like a bug in HP-UX make.  Haven't
reproduced it yet, though.  My guess is it doesn't understand inference
rules with separated dependencies, when targets and/or dependencies are
in subdirectories.  But I haven't been able to confirm this either.

It does already.
