building with 'obj' directories or symlinks is recommended.

there are actually more, but i'll tell you the two easy ones...  8-)

well, you already know how to build without 'obj' directories.

if you're in /usr/src, and say "make obj", it'll make directories in
/usr/obj for the various programs in the source tree, and make links
which point to those directories in the programs' source directories.

If you're not in /usr/src, and say "make obj", it'll make an "obj"
directory in each of the program source directories.
