How would I go about building, not the entire world, but only a small part of it? If I just cd to the desired subdirectory and type "make -n" -- intending to find out what it would try to do -- I get a warning about not having changed the object directory. I suppose I'm supposed to type something along the lines of make -n OBJ=<something> but what should I be setting OBJ to? An attempt to find(1) some of the expected output files, so as to discover where they are conventionally located, found nothing.
