I also dislike this mkdir. My problem is to be sure $(STAMP_DIR) is created 
before $(STAMP_DIR)/skeleton-target-installed. 

I can change order of dependencies in dirs target but this solution is too 
fragile.

I cannot just add a dependency between $(STAMP_DIR)/skeleton-target-installed 
and  $(STAMP_DIR).

I can add a stampfile for $(STAMP_DIR) but it looks a little complicated. 

I can also use an intermediate phony target (like dirs target) but it also 
looks complicated.


Any better idea?
