The only thing hard coded is the default MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX (it isn't
called that but it works the same way), but even that should work for any
location. I always have MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX when doing buildworld etc,
and have never used /usr/src.

Is there perhaps something interesting about /mnt/usr/src (like
