If changes to a module didn't result in changing its interface, my
compiler is careful to not overwrite the interface file, so modules
depending on this module will not be recompiled by make.

How does Jam deal with this? Before we compile a module, we don't know
whether modules which use it will need to be recompiled.

Of course it can conservatively assume that they always will be, but
then it's a disadvantage compared to make.
