Your arguments are convincing, I will switch my setup away from

As you proceed with your non-recursive build, be sure to keep in mind
that you are leaving the common path so you can expect to encounter
more bugs or things that need to be worked around. There are also
asthetic differences such as that your object files may be given funny
names. I think it is worthwhile in the long term though.
There is something very satisfying to do 'make' on a large project and
see:
% time gmake
gmake all-am
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/scratch/bfriesen/build/GraphicsMagick-16-static'
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/scratch/bfriesen/build/GraphicsMagick-16-static'
gmake 0.78s user 0.10s system 88% cpu 0.990 total
%
Note that the messages appear to indicate that Automake does recurse
once regardless.
