Interesting...

$ grep '^dir ' **/Makefile*
compat/Makefile.local:dir := compat
completion/Makefile.local:dir := completion
emacs/Makefile.local:dir := emacs
lib/Makefile.local:dir := lib
man/Makefile.local:dir := man
parse-time-string/Makefile.local:dir := parse-time-string
performance-test/Makefile.local:dir := performance-test
test/Makefile.local:dir := test
util/Makefile.local:dir := util

So why $(srcdir)/ prefix is needed only here...
