etc/Makefile uses this, but loses (for me, at least) when making obj
because that comes before the toolchain is built.  that looks to me
like a catch-22, since you can't make the toolchain until you've set
up your objdirs, but you can't set up your objdirs until you've got a
toolchain.

maybe the relevant bit in etc/Makefile should be be wrapped in

.ifmake(distribution)
...
.endif
