System: BSD/OS blue 2.1 BSDI BSD/OS 2.1 Kernel #8: Mon Oct 21 11:18:11 MET DST 1996 grossman@blue:/.amd/cassiopeia/export/src/BSDI/sys/compile/BLUE i386


>Description:
	The makefile.boot used to bootstrap BSD make expects the lst libray
	objects in the library subdirectory. However the default make rules
	on the systems I've encountered (which I think even includes NetBSD,
	but I can't test it at the moment) simply call the compiler with -c,
	leaving object files in the current directory.

>How-To-Repeat:
	In the make directory type make -f Makefile.boot and watch the
	linker not find the files.

>Fix:
	Add a .c.o rule that explicitly directs the compliler to put object 
	files into the directory the source was, like with this patch:
*** make/Makefile.boot	Mon Oct 14 18:55:48 1996
--- Makefile.boot	Sun Dec 29 21:30:08 1996
