Of course there is, depending of course on the capability of your MAKE 
utility.  It's simply a case of defining your tagets and dependencies 
correctly.

One question: why do you have three subdirs?  If you had just one 
(e.g. ./LIB) it would likely simplify considerably the rules in your 
makefile.
