No.

This is not a matter of taste,
but a bug that must be fixed.


This patch breaks out-of-tree build.

If O=... is given, it is error.


$ make O=foo  localyesconfig
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/masahiro/workspace/linux-yamada/foo'
masahiro@grover:~/workspace/linux-yamada$ make O=foo  localyesconfig
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/masahiro/workspace/linux-yamada/foo'
  GEN     ./Makefile
Can't open perl script "scripts/kconfig/streamline_config.pl": No such
file or directory
../scripts/kconfig/Makefile:46: recipe for target 'localyesconfig' failed
make[2]: *** [localyesconfig] Error 2
/home/masahiro/workspace/linux-yamada/Makefile:521: recipe for target
'localyesconfig' failed
make[1]: *** [localyesconfig] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/masahiro/workspace/linux-yamada/foo'
Makefile:146: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2



The right fix is $(srctree)/$(src)/streamline_config.pl
