Back when 3.0 deprecated a swath of old commands with policies
we decided that subdirs() was too widely used to warn about
(along with so many of the other commands that got policies).
With that batch over we could reconsider.  OTOH we still
generate subdirs() commands in CTestTestfile.cmake files for
"ctest" to use, though CTest re-implements the command itself
IIRC.

Great, thanks.

Doesn't that mean that subdirs()-specified directories now
InitializeFromParent twice?
