[Looks at Nate's scenario]

"Yuck."

I'm not sure that the safety trade-off here makes it anything I'd ever
want to deliberately encourage anyone to do.  I mean, if you still
*really* wanted to do it then you could just move the relevant obj
directory aside (and I'm sure a studly guy like Nate could make a
shell function out if it so that he never had to know the
corresponding obj dir location).
