How is that function used? I thought the $(word) and $(words) functions were available in 3.79. Or maybe my memory is hazy ... is it $(word) that was added? Another thing I do is that I go the opposite direction: I give a list of directories (which you could extract via a $(shell) command to find piped through sed, etc.), then I include the makefiles under those directories.
