Comment (by bdubbs):

 For LFS I'm not sure this is useful.  The build and test logs are retained
 and it really would not be hard to just unpack and manually redo the
 commands one at a time.  If there is a problem before Chapter 8 then care
 needs to be taken for duplicate builds (binutis, gcc, util-linux, etc).  I
 do most of the LFS updates and I do check with jhalfs before most commits
 (and ALL stable releases) so a user really should not need this type of
 capability.

 I don't use jhalfs for BLFS, but I do retain the build directories.  For a
 relatively complete BLFS I build in a separate partition /build.  Right
 now it is 183G.  That does not include texlive.
