There are several makefiles in the tree that expect to be able to change MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX in the environment of a sub-make. When you set it on the command line like that you prevent such changes from working. > So, it seems MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX only works as an environmental variable Yes, it has always been documented that way. > - I wonder if there is a way the make system can be changed to warn > about that? I thought there was a check in src/Makefile for that.
