[Elftoolchain-developers] Supporting out-of-tree builds

[Dr N.W. F. <nw...@ca...>]

Hello list,

For various and sundry reasons, I'd like to have elftoolchain support 
out-of-tree builds (at the very least, with WITH_TESTS=no and 
WITH_DOCUMENTATION=no).  I took an initial stab at this in 
https://github.com/emaste/elftoolchain/pull/7 , which Works For Me (TM). 
  That said, I will confess extremely limited experience with the BSD 
make system and convention, so another set, or several, of eyes would 
probably be a good idea!  (Is there a good source of documentation for 
the share/mk makefiles?)

Comments welcome.

Cheers,
--nwf;
