Agreed. The addtree function is more of a hack to make things just work
with O=, but AFAIK there is no clean way to implement VPATH for -I
arguments. So it's sensible to get rid of the hack. It looks like it's
going to be lot of work though:

$ git grep -e '-I' -- '*Makefile*' | wc -l
732
$ git grep -e '-I *\$(\(src\|obj\)tree)' -- '*Makefile*' | wc -l
166
