Clarification: We *could* support this but it does not work today. We
can use .OBJDIR to force using a MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX from make.conf but
only if we also force creating the directory as well. Getting this all
right just ends up falling into the new auto.obj.mk territory anyhow. I
do want to expand that to the default build, which would allow setting
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX in src-env.conf.
