Hmm, probably. I'll admit, I only debugged errors that show up in the
top-level kernel build. The only tools/bpf stuff tied to the top-level
build is resolve_btfids, which uses the static library, not the shared.

And now that I poke around at some other build targets, this highlights
that my patch introduced some problems with the independent libbpf
build. Particularly, $(OUTPUT) is a relative path in some cases, and
that relative path gets interpreted differently in recursive make (when
we change cwd). So please don't accept this patch as-is.
