I'm puzzled.  I have been building with a readonly source tree for quite
a while now.  I recall having some trouble last September, so I've been
doing this at least since then.  Last time I checked, it also worked with
-stable.  Are you doing something trickier?

Stephen.

PS I also build using NFS, using MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX, and sometimes still use
a 386, though my really slow 386 died suddenly last year. :-)  My 486SX
takes 22 hours to complete a buildworld.
