Ah, that worked, I was definitely re-using a directory I had built in
before.  I guess maybe it didn't figure out the dependency somehow.

so to repro (this is pseudo-git, i couldn't figure out how to test
this without starting all over)
git checkout v2.6.17
make O=../foo.obj all
git checkout HEAD
make O=../foo.obj all
<boom>
