It's trying to use *the wrong* directory path entirely.
It looks to be caused by the sub-make calls that pass O=$(OUTPUT)
because OUTPUT has been set to $(O)+subdir.
Then, in the sub-make tools/scripts/Makefile.include is called *again*
and does the same $(O)+subdir resulting in basedir+subdir+subdir.
