I gather "make world" does a "make cleandir" at some stage.

So if you are asking whether I have done a make world recently
then my answer is "Yes, guilty as charged".

If thats the cause of the problem then libmp's Makefile needs
some work.

On the whole I dont mess with my source tree.  You may not believe
me now that my mistake with the TODO-2.1 directory is known but
you'll have to take my word for it.

I do the following occasionally:
   - cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/config ; make  (with and empty /usr/obj)
   - cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/config ; make clean
   - make world

And a while ago I was doing "make distribution" from /usr/src/etc
with the destination tree set to somewhere in /tmp.
