Sorry, I was working from memory; I meant WRKOBJDIR.  It is a directory,
but /p and /p/pkg are both symlinks.  I've generally used this config
since 2011 across a few macs with varying size disks, and never had an
issue with symlinks.

I do not know how coypu%SDF.ORG@localhost got -I./girepository where I was getting
-I/full/path/to/girepository.  If I add:
	CFLAGS += -I./girepository

it seems to be expanded by something (or dropped before the wrappers get
into it.  I have not tried to build this particular pkg on anyting but
os/x (I don't need x11 on the netbsd boxes).

Thus:

I can appreciate that this is not a lot to go on and I should go
understand all the moving pieces (and try on a few platforms) before
speculating more here or in a PR, so feel free to direct me as such and
I'll swing back to it whenever I get some time; it seemed worthwhile to
follow up to the original email since I was running into it, too and there
had not been any follow ups.

thanks,
