If you really want that. Personally, I'm not sure.

That assumption might be false. For example, you may be working on
a.el, and it might have bugs.

Just ignore those messages, really. They are mostly harmless. You
could compile the dependent file again if you want, but that is rarely
needed, mainly when they define macros that were changed, and those
macros are used by the files which require a.el.
