    Tweak the shell scripting for descending into and building subdirs. · 16c503f3
    Brian Paul authored
    In general, use this:
    	@for dir in $(SUBDIRS) ; do \
    		if [ -d $$dir ] ; then \
    			(cd $$dir && $(MAKE)) || exit 1; \
    		fi \
    	done
    
    Basically, silently skip missing subdirs but generate an error and stop if
    there's a compilation or install problem.
    This was done inconsistantly before.  In once case, a missing subdir was
    causing us to go into an infinte loop!
