Subject: Build an external library from source and statically link it into a support module

I'm creating a support module, and I would like to incorporate a 3rd-party library, which would be built from source (a github project) and linked into the support module.

Is there support in the build system for this?  

I want the EPICS build system to call the external project's Makefile, and then consume the library that was produced.
