hmm... either you want to use -f function.mk to use the correct makefile
in your recursive make, or you might want to restructure your system to
use .for loops in the makefile like

DIRS=home/geo home/foo

. for REAL in ${DIRS}
. for _targ in do_${REAL:C,/,_,g}
all: ${_targ}
${_targ}:
	<code to make hardlinks>
. endfor
. endfor
