No - it looks at the original Makefile to determine which .o's to
build, and then writes a makefile that will build them itself.
Now-a-days you can even specify custom CFLAGS within the crunch
configuration file, and it can build the .o's anywhere you want.

I'm for a buildkernel that works without having to buildworld first.
