    lib/Makefile: Pass FLAG to make in SUBDIRS target
    
    Some applications, e.g. https://maas.io/, trust on the dhcp code 93
    option to reply the correct pxelinux.0 file according to client
    architecture.
    
    Today, dhcp.c is compiled without DHCPARCH, which causes it not to
    send client architecture in the dhcp request, i.e. dhcpd server can
    reply a pxelinux.0 binary that is not intended for client
    architecture.
    
    This patch makes sure client architecture is sent in the dhcp request.
