I've modified /usr/src/usr.bin/make to look at the OBJDIR make
variable after reading the Makefile, instead of looking for the
MAKE_OBJDIR environment variable or an "obj" directory. This was a
more complicated change than you might think (the directory module
keeps track of what's in the current directory); I'm pretty sure the
changes I made will do the right thing.
I have not changed any of the .mk files to simulate the old behavior
or updated the man pages, so be careful about installing make before I
clean things up.
(The goal is to have the .mk files support an OBJTREE variable or
something of that nature, so that you can build all or part of the
source tree without write access to /usr/src.)
