Wrong fix.  Deep directories should always have a Makefile.inc in
the directory above them, and that Makefile.inc should include
"../Makefile.inc" which to get the Makefile.inc above it, etc.
Note that "../Makefile.inc" is sometimes quite different from
"${.CURDIR}/../Makefile.inc".  The latter is an absolute pathname,
while the former is relative and is searched for beginning in the
directory of the file that does the inclusion (or does it begin
in in the object directory?).
