--- Comment #3 from andrew at tao11.riddles.org.uk ---
User error, caused by non-obvious magic behavior (aka "POLA violation") on the
part of bmake.

In short, since /usr/obj/home/elrond exists, bsd make is using that as .OBJDIR
by default, and changing directory to it before running commands. So it's the
permissions on _that_ directory that cause the issue.

It doesn't fail with gmake because that has no such magic behavior.
