I ask because I noticed that the following variablkes do not get honored
by "make release" that occurs inside the chroot() as spawned by "make
release" (presumably during release.5)

DESTDIR, MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX, RELEASEDIR 

For example, OBJs get sent right into $CHROOTDIR/usr/obj/, which really
sucks.
