Recursive make is a horrible hack. Splitting Makefile to smaller chunks which would be included in the top level Makefile is almost as bad. You can't cd to subdirectory and run make there and you have to prefix all files with "subdir/". If you really want to make Makefile shorter just move all the platform specific stuff to a configure script. -- http://onion.dynserv.net/~timo/
