Here's what I ended up with:

In kern.pre.mk:

+OFED_C_NOIMP=  ${CC} -c ${OFEDCFLAGS} ${WERROR} ${OFEDNOERR} ${PROF}
+OFED_C=                ${OFED_C_NOIMP} ${.IMPSRC}

I don't use NORMAL_C as linux doesn't use some warnings that we specify 
and I need to modify the include path to search the linux wrapper paths 
first.

in files:
+ofed/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/ah.c           optional mlx4           \
+       no-depend obj-prefix "mlx4_"                                    \
+       compile-with "${OFED_C_NOIMP} -I$S/ofed/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/"

Generated Makefile:
mlx4_ah.o: $S/ofed/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/ah.c
         ${OFED_C_NOIMP} -I$S/ofed/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/ $S/ofed/drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/ah.c


And the patch to config:
http://people.freebsd.org/~jeff/objprefix.diff

The full source path is only emitted when an object prefix is set.  If you 
don't like this diff please speak now before I commit.  It will go to my 
private branch for ofed first but I'm sure I'll forget about it before I 
merge.

I still need to change config so it will do proper depends for files which 
require extra includes.  Before then I just specify no-depend for ib.

Is it possible to set make variables within targets?  I can export shell 
variables since that's an executable command.  I could then refer to the 
shell variables in the scripts but that seems really gross.

Thanks,
Jeff
