One problem with this solution is that the value of $BDIR may change,
depending on variants.  I have run into that problem before.  A rough
approach is to check for a directory name "build-*".  Also, it's
possible that both an absolute path and a relative path are used for the
same directory, that needs to be taken care of for robustness.

You need to use os.path.join() for concatenating parts of a path.

I start sounding like a teacher, don't I? :-)
