So the .c and .h files are in directory "src" but you want the .o and the
binaries in a directory "build"?  Plenty do that, especially anything
that uses more than one database variety.  mnogosearch for example.

I do
 mkdir build-pgsql
 cd build-pgsql
 ../configure .............

and

  $(MAKE) -C build-pgsql
