Anyway, one option is the one I gave.  Another option would be to make
your top-level makefile slightly more complex and pass the override
values in through the environment rather than the command line.  If you
use something like:

        SUBDIRS=foo make

rather than:

        make SUBDIRS=foo

then the SUBDIRS value will be passed to sub-makes but through the
environment, and any settings in the submake makefiles will take
precedence over the environment setting.

Thanks, that looks like a good way to solve my problem.
