Eric `info make' also has a page dedicated to Phony Targets
Eric that discusses the more portable way to have a recursive

Not really: this only describes how one can setup recursive
targets with GNU make. Option -C is neither portable nor
standard.
How about the following patch to Automake?
The very last paragraph of check4.test shows how I was able to
reproduce the problem with GNU make (without cygwin
modifications).

* lib/am/subdirs.am ($(RECURSIVE_TARGETS), mostlyclean-recursive,
clean-recursive, distclean-recursive, maintainer-clean-recursive):
Process all words of $MAKEFLAGS when checking for -k.
* tests/check4.test: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add check4.test.
Report from Eric Blake.
