IIRC there are a few problem locations in the build where this or
similar caused problems. I think this relates to some hierarchies being
built with custom env - which makes it hard for src.sys.obj.mk to always
get things right.
I think the change below or close to it has been committed and reverted
in the past.

Your use of _OBJROOT looks similar to how we (Juniper) use SB_OBJROOT.
We run make via a wrapper which defines SB (location of the tree) and a
number of SB_* variables which can be assumed correct. It also obviates
the need for make.conf
Of course our build is never used to "install" anything - we just build
packages which are then installed, so it is much simpler.
