The build process of that directory is rather odd at present.  As soon as
I can rescue some time to work on INN again, it was one of the things I
was going to fix.  That's just the cosmetic problem; it also could use
some help being more parallel.

I'd kind of rather there just be one Makefile, at the storage level, and
that each directory have a makefile fragment included in that Makefile
instead of doing the recursive make thing, but that may be a bit ambitous.
