Ahhh, subdir-objects.  Since this is so important to non-recursive
makes, it would be useful if it was referenced in the "An Alternative
Approach to Subdirectories" section of the documentation.

Please move the clean bug up in the priority level.  Automake has a
non-recursive user now. :-)

I suspect/believe that libtool will have some problems as well.
