When I previously discussed that with mshal he said the following (edited to
replace locations specific to my setup):

"A little background about tup: by default it keeps track of everything in the
directory where 'tup init' gets run, and all subdirectories (if you look in your
top-level source directory, you should have a ".tup" directory there). So in the
case you use an out-of-tree $OBJDIR Tup doesn't see all the Tupfiles created in
that directory, since that is outside of where `tup init` gets run. I think it
might be possible to support this in the future, but that is likely a
non-trivial effort."
