Only the `mkdir' part of the sed need be done on every machine. The
symlinks should only be made on the master source machine: Change
the last two lines to
> sed 's,/usr/src/\(.*\),mkdir /usr/obj/\1' | sh
(Incidentally, this will make more `obj' symlinks, and sometimes more
directories, than actually necessary. <bsd.prog.mk> now has a
`make obj' that makes the symlinks. The extra directories in /usr/obj
are probably not worth worrying about.)
