Naive but interesting. Perhaps an alternate direction to take is that
native subdirs should also be in PWD/<host>/foo so that at the top
directory we have, at most, three directories with actual builds in
them?
But those types of changes have too far a reach for consequences for
me (or any small group) to decide alone.
An easier solution is to just check for "." in ./configure and refuse.
But again, that has too far a reach for me to decide.
