Definitely not :) The Automake manual makes reference to Peter Miller's paper (http://www.pcug.org.au/~millerp/rmch/recu-make-cons-harm.html). I've been trying to adopt those ideas as much as possible, and so far have succeeded in not requiring any recursive invocations of make. Your suggestion would require recursive make, correct?
