OK, I found the problem and have fixed it here:

$ cvs commit -m "BUG: make sure OBJECT_DIR is in the path of the SHELL" -l
cvs commit: Examining .
? deb.patch
/cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmMakefileLibraryTargetGenerator.cxx,v  <-- 
  cmMakefileLibraryTargetGenerator.cxx
new revision: 1.61; previous revision: 1.60
/cvsroot/CMake/CMake/Source/cmMakefileTargetGenerator.cxx,v  <-- 
cmMakefileTargetGenerator.cxx
new revision: 1.96; previous revision: 1.95

This seems to be done already...


   // Create the directory containing the object file.  This may be a
   // subdirectory under the target's directory.
   std::string dir = cmSystemTools::GetFilenamePath(obj.c_str());
   cmSystemTools::MakeDirectory
     (this->LocalGenerator->ConvertToFullPath(dir).c_str());

Alex, is this test needed in cross compiling, or can it be avoided?
