[Xorp-users] BUG: 1.7 build system has builddir feature but creates files in source tree, build with read-only source tree fails

The XORP-1.7 build system has a feature to use an alternate build 
directory (builddir option), while this indeed relocates the creation of 
object files and build targets, scons still creates build specific files 
in the source tree. If the source tree is read-only for the compiling 
user, the build fails.
The attached log file of such an attempt was obtained with scons 
prefix=/opt/xorp builddir=../build-1.7
There doesn't seem to be an easy way to completely build in a separate 
directory as was the case with XORP-1.6.
