Which you'll see if you don't use the designated build{world|kernel} targets,
but cd into a directory and start typing make or....quite the pitfall, run
make obj depend, rather then make obj && make depend. In the first case, the
.depend file ends up in .CURDIR, not .OBJDIR.
Also, perhaps it's better to advise make cleanworld for the rm -rf, as this
target accomplishes the same, deals better with chflags(2) and leaves
/usr/obj/usr/ports in tact for those who have set WRKDIRPREFIX to /usr/obj for
ports.
