Here's what I've got so far.  It's broken and I have a few questions:

  - what's if %?SUBDIRS% ... endif for?  I've seen it used elsewhere, and 
comments that say it's not allowed.

  - is there a better way to do what I'm doing with
      $(MAKE) ... reldir=$$subdir cscopedirs
    ?  the cscope.files file in $(top_builddir) needs to have paths relative 
to $(top_srcdir) (and, come to think of it, my current approach doesn't deal 
with that at all)

  - when I run automake to recreate my makefiles, some directories are missing 
'cscopedir' rules, how can I check for that?

Thanks,
Jesse
