Actually, as people have already stated, it is exactly the last one
which is the correct one to *rebuild*.  Having just a Makefile does
not mean that this particular Makefile does not reference sources
in other directories; this is the case with pretty much everything
in src/secure - most of it references sources in src/crypto.

So, patch in src/crypto, rebuild in src/secure... and never ignore
'just a Makefile' again :P

G'luck,
Peter
