Select (or create) a build directory. It is better to run the build in a different directory rather than use this directory. This reads like a specific instruction to create a build directory. It's an option that is very useful for people who will hold the directory for a long time, but these people are still a minority. Most people will compile from source once, or will compile from source once after every release.
So what? Does it matter if everyone creates a build directory? John
