I'm porting a large Windows toolkit to Linux, OSX, etc.  Is there a
tool which will walk my directory structure outputting Makefile.am in
each directory where needed?

I'd recommend to consider alternatives to the `one Makefile.am per
direcory' approach in favor of fewer makefiles, maybe only one
per component. As far as I know automake fully supports this.

Even with the non-recursive case, there can be one true "Makefile" but individual Makefile.am files may live in the subdirectories and be included into a master top-level Makefile.am. The files in the subdirectories do not need to be named Makefile.am.
