OBJTREE is a variable internal to Makefile.inc1; it's then assigned to
a MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX environment variable which make(1) understands and
uses to find the actual object directory.

CANONICALOBJDIR is what we (BSD, FreeBSD) choose to be a canonical
object directory out of the list of possible object directories
make(1) understands; the list is documented in the manpage:

: 1.   ${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}/`pwd`
: 2.   ${MAKEOBJDIR}
: 3.   obj.${MACHINE}
: 4.   obj
: 5.   /usr/obj/`pwd`

That is, 1 and 5.

There's no conflict between bsd.obj.mk and Makefile.inc1; the former
creates a canonical object directory with the default "obj" target,
${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}/`pwd` or /usr/obj/`pwd`, and Makefile.inc1 only
changes the value of MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX environment variable.

bsd.obj.mk doesn't (and shouldn't) know anything about OBJTREE which
is internal to Makefile.inc1.

You should set MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to the same value for "build" and
"install" targets.  If you set it only for the "install" target,
you'll get what you describe; let's see...

This change is plain wrong and shouldn't be committed.

The problem is that Makefile.inc1 sets MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX for world-
related targets specially, taking into account the value of ${TARGET},
to be able to use a single directory to build worlds for different
architectures.

mergemaster.sh uses "obj" and "all" targets which aren't cross-build
aware (don't take ${TARGET} into account) to build etc/ bits, and then
"distribution" target (which is cross-build aware) to install then.
The effect of this is that you end up with "build" and "install" targets
having different ideas of MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX.  The fix is to use cross-aware
versions of "obj" and "all" targets:
