    Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@computergmbh.de> reported:
    You can cause a recursion in kbuild/make with the following:
    
    make O=$PWD kernel/time.o
    make mrproper
    
    Of course no one would use O=$PWD (that's just the testcase),
    but this happened too often:
    
    /ws/linux/linux-2.6.23$ make O=/ws/linux/linux-2.6.23 kernel/time.o
    (Oops - should have been O=/ws/linux/obj-2.6.23!)
    
    Fixed by an explicit test for this case - we error
    out if output directory and source directory are the same.
