With a non-recursive, top level Makefile. Quick example:
So, replace a nicely separated source setup with munging together the
information about everything in one place? Thanks for the suggestion,
but that seems like a major step backwards in maintainability to me, so
I'll decline. Life goe

It would be nice if automake had some more features for that...
E.g., if I h
This would require to change the 'check-recursive' targets not to
share the same code with the other '*-recursive' targets. I really
don't want to go there.
Totally reasonable :).
The best solution is on the user-side IMHO: fix the build system to
use less (ideally none) make
