You don't ever 'cd' back out of the first subdirectory, so you can't
find the second:
Ralf is correct, of course. In my online catalog of solutions, I'd
copied and modified this code from an Automake-generated Makefile. But I
inadvertently left the parentheses off the cd command line, which would
have invoked the entire line in a sub-shell:
for dir in $(SUBDIRS); do \
(cd $$dir&& $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) $@ || exit 1) \
done
Sorry for the confusion.
John
