And..? It's correct! It's the same way it *used* to be, in fact. Unless you by luck had your src directory *really* under /usr/src, the sed script which intended to strip /usr/src off always failed and you'd end up with /usr/obj/actual/source/path/<something>, something which was guaranteed in the case where you had "joe" checking out and building parts of his own tree.
