Though this does infact prevent the error the larger question
is what has gone wrong in the Makefile such that this directory
already exists when you get to this point in the Makefile,
as it appears from the lack of -p or other logic to detect
an already existing directory it is not expected to already
be present.

Traditionally -p is used when your creating a path
to a directory, not just a single directory, so it
appears very odd to me to even see a mkdir -p <dirname>,
which would probably be the same as @mkdir <dirname>.

How did this directory get created?
Why is it existing when we get to this line?
