Note: this is only relevant for meta mode (MK_META_MODE=3D=3Dyes) which
wants to be able to tweak objdirs for building for multiple machines at
the same time.  MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX doesn't fit well with that, this
provides a reasonaby painless compromise so those used to using
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX can try it out with minimal pain.

No, this file (local.meta.sys.mk) doesn't get included by buildworld.
It will only be included if MK_META_MODE=3D=3Dyes
