OK, makes sense.

Indeed. I think this is an artifact of the way I initially wrote these changes — I tried to eliminate some recordmcount variables by using objtool_dep in the recordmcount portions of the Makefile. Then I realized the .config variable combinations meant the most clearly-correct way to write it is still with separate variables.
Will fix so it’s clear this is the only assignment.
Cheers,
