In his case 'make cleandir' before your command would be highly
recommendable. Otherwise he might end up bith object-files in the source
AND the obj-directories. That will produce problems later. (Example:
librpcsvc needs .c and .h-files generated from rpcgen. When the obj-dir
has been created after the first make, it will never update those files,
even if a clean or cleandir is issued.)
