Subject: Re: Support for out-of-tree build

There is one other issue with the VPATH solution which I just realized
while trying to make changes to the original patch: the order-only
dependencies don't work with VPATH because the directories already exist
the source directory, so we'd need to use the solution with .dirstamps.
