I think using bsd.subdir.mk is an error if there is anything more to
be done than traversing subdirs.  bsd.subdir.mk is mainly for optimising
this special case.

Using bsd.lib.mk would be bogus since there are no libraries to be made,
and in fact it seems to be broken (it attempts to handle "lib.a").

bsd.prog.mk is supposed to be usable here and seems to work right for
normal builds.  We use it routinely in similar (but more top heavy)
setups elsewhere.
