All my systems that build sources have not had a /usr/src at all for
at least three years, maybe 4 now. Nothing in bsd.*.mk assumes
/usr/src and things work just fine without them. And have for years.
Terry must be doing something else wrong. :-)
You may be right about non-default compilers. We at timing solutions
have a bunch of files that wrap bsd.*.mk that allow us to change the
compiler to compile our sources. But I've always run into problems
trying to do that in the past.
