(see below)

  |              MACHINE = 'i386'

-O sets MAKEOBJDIR not BSDOBJDIR.
MAKEOBJDIR takes priority over BSDOBJDIR.


  |     MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX = (undefined)
  |            MKOBJDIRS = 'yes'
  |           MKUNPRIVED = 'no'
  |             MKUPDATE = 'no'
  |           RELEASEDIR = '/usr/demon-obj//releasedir'
  |    TOOLCHAIN_MISSING = 'no'
  |              TOOLDIR = '/usr/tools'
  |             USETOOLS = 'yes'
  | 
  | So... now I wonder whether this is giving me any problems, /usr/obj

  | 
  | Note I do not know BSDOBJDIR's effect, just saw it's a wrong path...
