you shouldn't *need* it (any more)...

yes, by make.  however, to do that, you have to install
the new version of the libraries, includes, and the new 'make' binary.
to do all of that, you need to define it "by hand" first.

no, you don't need to 'make obj' -- the .OBJDIR make variable
sets things up so that Makefiles can easily find out exactly which
directory binarys are being build it, which helps to REMOVE
the need to 'make obj'.

before, you had to.  as time goes on, it's necessary for fewer things.
(it might not be necessary at all, now...  however, it's a good idea.)
