That's correct, you have to run 'make clean' to remove the
object files otherwise make thinks they are up-to-date.
If you do 'make -C flower' 'make -C lily' 'make -C midi2ly',
you don't have to rebuild the font files and other files that 
are platform independent.

Did you take a closer look at the possibility to have several 
'configurations', see INSTALL.txt. It's supposed to support
exactly your problem, but I've never tried it myself, though.
