I'll have to dig out the URL for "Recursive Make Considered Harmful."
Google should turn it up though.
This is one of the reasons why: when you move dependencies out of a
recursive make, you must explicitly force a remake of everything,
because make just lost the dependency it needs to know that it needs
to rebuild a target. Catch-22 (at least this one doesn't mean you end
up in Vietnam in 1967).
