Prerequisites can be added to a task at any time.  Just redeclare the task
and the prerequisites and action will be appended to the existing task.

For example:

  task :build => [:preprocess, :compile, :link]

is equivalent to ...

  task :build => [:preprocess]
  task :build => [:compile]
  task :build => [:link]

So, to add a prereq to the :rdoc task ...

  task :rdoc => [:whatever]
