116 world:
117         $(MAKE) clean
118         $(MAKE) kdelete
119         $(MAKE) dist

 40 dist: dist-xen dist-kernels dist-tools dist-stubdom dist-docs dist-misc

 49 dist-%: install-%

 65 install-xen:
 66         $(MAKE) -C xen install

... and

 54 xen: dist-xen
 55 tools: dist-tools
 56 kernels: dist-kernels
 57 stubdom: dist-stubdom
