Since I was mentioned, and at the risk of offending, the reason is this:

We want to do two things:
- Run lint over all of the lint-clean sources as part of
  the nightly build, to keep those sources lint-clean.
- Be able to run lint over all of the sources, lint-clean or not,
  in order to find and clean up lint-dirty sources as time permits.

The first part is achieved with $(SRC)/Makefile.lint

The second part is done by:
    cd $SRC/lib ; make lint
    cd $SRC/cmd ; make lint

So the next time we have a lint party (we used to do them every
couple of years), we can easily identify the lint-dirty sources.

Roger
