Have you considered using "include" files in the Makefiles? This way
one can
place all the interesting variables in a single file and include that
from all other
Makefiles. This would also help those gnarly make calls with a million
arguments
to lower Makefiles. I am not sure if that would help this particular
problem,
but it would sure help to make it more manageable.
My 2 cents,
