FWIW, here's a list:

lib/db/Makefile:	test ! -d latex || (cd ./latex && make clean)
lib/db/Makefile:	(cd ./latex && make)
lib/db/Makefile:	test ! -d latex || (cd ./latex && make clean)
lib/db/Makefile:	(cd ./latex && make pdf && mv refman.pdf grass57dbmi_`date '+%Y_%m_%d'`_refman.pdf)
lib/vector/Makefile:	test ! -d latex || (cd ./latex && make clean)
lib/vector/Makefile:	(cd ./latex && make)
lib/vector/Makefile:	test ! -d latex || (cd ./latex && make clean)
lib/vector/Makefile:	(cd ./latex && make pdf && mv refman.pdf grass57vlib_`date '+%Y_%m_%d'`_refman.pdf)
tools/Makefile:	(cd timer ; make)
vector/v.clean/Makefile:	cd test; make
Makefile:		(cd $$subdir && make) || exit 1; \
Makefile:		(cd $$subdir && make) || exit 1; \
Makefile:		(cd $$subdir && make clean) || exit 1; \
Makefile:		(cd $$subdir && make clean) || exit 1; \
Makefile:	(cd lib/db/ ; make htmldocs)
Makefile:	(cd lib/vector/ ; make htmldocs)
Makefile:	(cd lib/db/ ; make pdfdocs)
Makefile:	(cd lib/vector/ ; make pdfdocs)
visualization/nviz/Makefile:	cd src ; make
visualization/nviz/Makefile:	(cd src && make clean) || exit 1;
raster/r.le/r.le.setup/Makefile:	(cd polytocell/ ; make )
raster/r.terraflow/IOStream/lib/Makefile:	(cd src ; make)
raster/r.terraflow/Makefile:	(cd IOStream/lib ; make)
raster/r.terraflow/Makefile:	(cd IOStream/lib ; make)
raster/r.terraflow/Makefile:	(cd IOStream/lib ; make clean )

Also, both Makefile and include/Make/Platform.make.in set the MAKE
variable; this gets set by MAKE itself, and shouldn't be overriden.
