Yes, we are probably poor users of autocrap.
But I don't want to make excuses for that.
We're trying to build 8 small binaries, three static and four dynamic

We should not have to even think about build infrastructure *at all*.

And that is why I want to get rid of autocrap: It doesn't just work,
not even close.

Absolutely, and I'd love to have that going in.
The only change I ask is that each of the lib/bin subdirectories
have a trivial makefile along the lines of:
*:
cd ../.. && make $(*)
(no, make(1) doesn't grok that, but you get the idea...
