Thanks Tom.

Going back to Simon's question about what to do for the release,
I tend to agree with you that it's an unnecessary risk to be trying
to finish the transition of moving the directories to the root
directory. Could we add a test that checks explicitly for in-tree
builds and abort with a clear error message when detected?
Is there an in-tree/out-of-tree check that already exists for that?
Otherwise, I'd base it on the src_dir being different from the
build dir, but that's simple-minded and pretty easy to defeat
(not that it's a huge issue).
