Change into your objdir, change down to the specific directory where you want to build (the directory structure of the objdir matches the structure of the source dirs), and type just “make” (or “gmake” if necessary). This only works if you find a directory that contains a “Makefile” (the equivalent directory in the source tree will contain a “Makefile.in”). If you want to get even more specific than that, you can try “make .obj”. See Incremental Build.
