The change, as I see it, is that it brings more stuff into the top-level Makefile and reduces the unnecessary use of recursive make. There is less maintenance to do and it's easier to maintain a single Makefile than a dozen tiny ones. > Well, the main reason they were built by default was to make sure > they stayed maintained.
