Excellent.  Thank you for your thorough help.  I was able to get this
working.  nvcc seems to wrap around gcc, so I needed to extend the
custom rule to be almost identical to the rules for C code:

  $(NVCC) -c $(DEFS) $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $
(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $<
