If we disallowed builds *from in source tree* requiring all output to go
into a separate build output directory instead (like any sane person does*)
we wouldn't need a crazy find in the source tree to mess things up. ;)
this can be done today:
$ mkdir foo && cd foo && ../my-hg/2.7/configure --srcdir=../my-hg/2.7 &&
make -j12
I think all we'd need to do is disallow the cwd when configuring or
building from being within srcdir.

* note: the author is normally too lazy to be sane because it involves
slightly more typing.
