That is what I thought, so there would be a mechanism to delegate
certain parameters (-p also works recursively, as it seems) to
sub-makes. I personalls do not like recursive make structures, but in
projects like Freetz or Buildroot they cannot be avoided, because such
build environments including third-party packages always fire a series
of sub-make calls in order to build those packages, even if within
themselves they work cleanly enough, including *.mk files instead of
calling seperate make processes.
Maybe such information could also be conveyed to a sub-make via "magic"
environment variables, provided those would be exported into each
sub-make's environment as expected.
