Not really - if you think about it the system people install when the
install from CD is all built from one /usr/src and installed from one
/usr/obj. If you want to build different versions, then you have that
option but it certainly doesn't have to be that way.

As far as I remember, installing from a ro /usr/obj has worked for
quite a long time, and should be fixed if it is broken.
