GIT can now be built in a separate builddirectory. This is done as
follows:

  mkdir build
  cd build
  $my_git_dir/configure
  make

In this case, configure creates an empty directory tree based on the
source directory, and wraps Makefiles from source directory in the
build directory.  The rest of the functionality is delivered with the
VPATH feature of Make.

To make this work the Makefile should not mention ./ explicitly in
rules, but rather use $< and $^ to automatically look in the source
dir too.

perl/Makefile and perl/Makefile.PL need special massaging because perl
is not VPATH aware.
