16 seconds? That=E2=80=99s a really slow NFS server and at least 11 =
seconds longer than it should take :(.

Make doesn=E2=80=99t really have the ability to cache results =
run-to-run, but I=E2=80=99ll poke at other options. In the mean time, =
you can do something like:
	setenv _MPATH `(cd $MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX/path/sys/GENERIC; make -V =
_MPATH)`
to cache the value. Not ideal, but likely good enough for repeated =
module builds. If I can=E2=80=99t come up with anything clever, I=E2=80=99=
ll just commit the current list=E2=80=A6 I hate doing that, but I also =
hadn=E2=80=99t counted upon find taking so stinkin=E2=80=99 long...
