Thanks.  I don't see how this should happen with compile rules generated
by any recent Automake version.  So there is something else going on:
either an ancient version I have no memory over how it worked,
hand-written rules by the package's author, some override of MAKEFLAGS
in the Makefile.am files (could be up the tree somewhere) that drop the
-s flag.  Could be a weird make; is this GNU make?  Which version?

Cheers,
