A command like
        $(MAKE) -C other_directory -f other_makefile
executes another makefile in another directory.

Commands like
        cd other_directory; w; x
        y; z
run 'w' and 'x' in another directory, but run 'y'
and 'z' in the original directory.

Do you want to do something that neither of those
methods permits?
