If one used DESTDIR= pointing to a local directory for a cross
built installkernel for later copying to the system(s) that will
use the kernel one gets such things as:

# ls -l /usr/obj/DESTDIRs/clang-pine64-installkernel/boot/kernel/if_igb.ko 
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  65 Feb 14 09:25 /usr/obj/DESTDIRs/clang-pine64-installkernel/boot/kernel/if_igb.ko -> /usr/obj/DESTDIRs/clang-pine64-installkernel/boot/kernel/if_em.ko

But the target place(s) to later copy to is(are) unlikely to
have such a path.

Relative paths, hard links, or independent copies could avoid
such things.
