Ensure no temporary files are created in the top-level source directory during 
the build/test process

                 Key: PIG-135
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-135
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Arun C Murthy
             Fix For: 0.1.0


Let's assume SRC_TOP is the top-level src directory.

Currently the build process creates a *src-gen* directory in SRC_TOP and the 
junit tests create a *test* directory in SRC_TOP. This means that the 'ant 
clean' task now has to cleanup both.
It would be nice to create a standalone _build_ directory in the top-level 
directory and then use that as the parent of _all_ generated files (source and 
non-source). This would mean 'ant clean' would just need to delete the build 
directory. It plays well when there are multiple sub-projects developed on top 
of Pig (e.g. contrib etc.) too.
