Careful, this will create a mess because subdir's Makefile ends up in
the current directory, overwriting the Makefile previously created by
./configure. Use this instead:

configure-stamp:
        ./configure --foo etc..
        cd subdir && ./configure --bar etc...

build-stamp:
        $(MAKE)
        $(MAKE) -C subdir

Cheers,

  Richard
