Hi -
Leave that. My fault :(
I always use O=../some-folder for all compilation related commands and do all this with script every time (so no manual mistakes). But since some time i am observing the current source folder also gets dirty. Some time it complains for running make mrproper on source folder and sometimes gives above errors.
make mrproper fixed this issue.
Glad you're sorted... actually fwiw I also use scripted O= scheme for all builds here (it makes switching between different build contexts of same sources cheap) and I don't have any contamination of ./ happening.
