gmake does show the nesting level in its output and indeed it's a valuable information if setproctitle is to be used... gmake appears to use a MAKELEVEL environment variable to keep track in between parent/child runs. I see a similar mechanism in our make (using the __MKLVL__ environment variable) but it's restricted only to the check_make_level() function that is checking the nesting level, thus no global variable is available to use.
