This was added to the main Makefile when we slurped gitk to our
project at the top-level, so I am not surprised if git-gui were
not depending on it at all.

A better explanation is that t62ba514 (Move gitk to its own
subdirectory, 2007-11-17) should have moved these lines to
gitk-git/Makefile (and I think we should move them there in a
separate patch).
