Hi Rod,
	I can’t personally vouch for readonly src trees working in all cases, but readonly src trees work well for installation purposes (I use readonly obj and src trees at work when installing over NFS).
	As Warner noted, “make cscope” is a developer target that aids with building the cscope database in a consistent manner. It doesn’t conform to the existing “norms” of build targets in the tree; changing the behavior doesn’t seem prudent at this point in time because it would violate POLA.
Thanks!
