I tried that, but what do I build inside the directories?  I tried
adding the objects to nfp-objs, building a lib.a, or trying to build a
separate object, but it's either ignored or dependency is not obeyed
and nfp.o complains that the subdirectory object doesn't exist yet
when the build of subdirectory finishes later :(

Sorry for not spotting your response earlier!  It went into Spam for
some reason :S
