Ah, so you do have a loop, at least in a sense that you cannot put
your directories in a total ordering for recursion. Didn't realize
that before. One thing you can do is, put stuff like
$(top_builddir)/cgi++/libcgixx.la:
cd $(top_builddir)/cgi++ && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) libcgixx.la
in the Makefile.am files that need it. If the cgi++ directory has
BUILT_SOURCES, then they need to be built first, though.
BTW, if you keep top-posting, I will ignore further mails from you.
