pylibssh started to fail to build from source recently:

Any idea what might be causing that?
Bad news is that they have a completely custom build backend so navigating it
would be messy. My guess is that the CFLAGS are not respected somehow.
Good news is that they have packit integration in upstream so you can
replicate it there after you revert their conditional [1].

It was indeed messy, but I finally tracked it down to it building the source in
a temporary directory that was removed after the files were compiled.
What we did back in the day when pip has done this:
- set TMPDIR to a directory within the %builddir (we still do)
- invoked pip with --no-clean
You may benefit from the in-place TMPDIR if only you can convince the backed
not to clean it.
I ended up patching the build config to not do that:

c/5abf22f7396356048987a3f2355252c363ebbdf0?branch=rawhide
I don't know if that is the best way to do it or if there is some way to select
the "build_editable" config that uses build_inplace=True
I belive you don't want an editable build,
assuming it's https://peps.python.org/pep-0660/
