As of 1.0.0, most directories are build using a non-recursive
make from the top-level.  This gives better utilisation of parallel
make processes ("make -j4" will manage to run 4 processes much more
of the time), a smaller generated build system, and more accurate
dependencies.

There's meant to be an "examples/Makefile" which just runs the top
level Makefile, but it isn't listed to be included in the tarball.
I'll fix that (and any others which are missing) for 1.0.1.

Cheers,
    Olly
