GHC -M mode fails to ensure that boot files are built before source files

Imagine we have a module with a boot file. In general it is necessary to ensure that we compile the boot file *before* the source file to ensure that the hi-boot file exists when we go to typecheck the module (triggering the behavior observed in #14481 (closed)). However, ghc -M doesn't guarantee this.
