buildworld/installworld does the Right Thing(tm), while the above
"one-off" makes do not.

I don't think there's any guarantee "make depend" and "make install" in
the individual /usr/src/{whatever} directories will do what you want it
to.  It seems to be a per-piece thing; there's no "universal standard"
(aside from buildworld/installworld) is what I'm getting at.
