The nifty KDE build system does all that (and much more) for you
automatically. Simply add the new .cpp file to your Makefile.am and
run make. Then some script (am_edit) will run and check which
moc files are needed. If you add a #include <foo.moc> to your .cpp
without editing Makefile.am (read: changing the timestamp) you'll
have to tell the build system that it has to check moc dependencies.
(run 'make force-reedit' to get that)
