The primary build system for tuxmath is automake, but we try to
support both.  The cmake build has been used for some Mac releases in
the past, but everything else (source tarballs, distro packaging,
windows binaries) is done with automake.

For automake, the quickest thing is just to add the files to the
tuxmath_SOURCES (for *.c files) and EXTRA_DIST (for other files)
variables in src/Makefile.am with relative paths, e.g.:

tuxmath_SOURCES = tuxmath.c \
	setup.c 	\
	titlescreen.c	\
	menu.c		\
	menu_lan.c	\
	game.c 		\
	factoroids.c    \
	fileops_media.c \
	options.c	\
	credits.c	\
	highscore.c	\
	audio.c 	\
        network.c       \
	mathcards.c	\
	campaign.c	\
	multiplayer.c	\
	fileops.c	\
	SDL_rotozoom.c	\
	lessons.c	\
	server.c \
        bayesian/bayesian_network.c \

and so forth.

The recursive way, which is what is usually done, is to create a
SUBDIRS = bayesian variable in src/Makefile.am, and create
src/bayesian/Makefile.am to handle the new directory.

I know less about cmake, but AFAIK the process is very similar.
