+Subject: [PATCH] fix build with --disable-dependency-tracking
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+With split build and source directories AND --disable-dependency-tracking
+(like the way Yocto builds are done) there's a reproducible make
+failure on my Fedora 33 build host:
