nope.  i have no idea.  we need to ask make gurus what is up.

simon? david? christos?  you might want to start from the original
report which i see is at:

http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-sparc64/2011/01/12/msg001446.html


the only possible ideas i have is to run "ktrace -id nbmake-sparc64"
and grovel the very large output it will have for clues, or to use
"make -d<x>" flags to try to follow what make it doing, and why it
is transforming the first SUBDIR above into some objdir that won't
exist even for any type of objdir build we support.
