This is exactly it, I think. Also, make versions other than GNU make don't do parallelism anyway. And, you can see that automake recipes go to a LOT of effort to handle the errors that are generated by subdirectories properly: they even test the make flags and don't throw an error if the user specified -k. If you're able to rely on GNU make, it's a lot simpler to use one of the methods described in the GNU make manual. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
