This gives us a few benefits:
1) make -j clean all
this will start working, as it should. It currently doesn't.
2) increased parallel build
recursive make will max out at number of files in a directory,
non-recursive make doesn't have such a limitation
3) Removal of duplicate information in make files,
less error prone
I've also slightly updated how we call AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, as the way
that was used was not only deprecated but will be *removed* in the next
major automake release (1.13).... so probably best that we can continue
to bulid tor without requiring old automake.
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Public-Macros.html )
For more reasons why, see resources such as:

We now catch bare {s that should be on the previous line with a do,
while, if, or for, and elses that should share a line with their
preceding }.
That is,
if (foo)
{
and
if (foo) {
...
}
else
are now detected.
We should think about maybe making Tor uncrustify-clean some day,
but configuring uncrustify is an exercise in bizarreness, and
reformatting huge gobs of Tor is always painful.
Somewhere along the line, doxygen and tor changed their behavior a
little. The script is still a dreadful kludge, but now at least it
sorta works again.
The timercmp macro uses triggers a "space between function name and
opening parentheses" warning for the check spaces script. Work around
this by simply disabling the check for all "functions" named 'op()'.
Otherwise I need to figure out what it does and how to make it do it
every time I want to use it. It did that unixy thing where running
it with no arguments printed nothing and returned.
