What is the source of this problem? I don't remember seeing a message
about it, but I could have missed it.

I can file a PR, but Sam knows more than I do about the problem.
NetBSD make, for reasons which are lame, will use an "obj"
subdirectory if one is present, instead of using the current
directory. This causes Bad Things to happen. We can just decide to
state that bsd make is broken (which it is), and that bsd people
should use gmake (which works fine), or we can just remove the install
rule from the db in the krb5 tree, since it doesn't get used, anyway.
