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.
I ended up patching the build config to not do that:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-ansible-pylibssh/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
