Comment(by leif):

 Wouldn't it be sufficient to just (keep the -- perhaps slightly modified
 -- documentation and the three lines honoring `SAGE_KEEP_BUILT_SPKGS` and)
 change the variable `BUILD` (bad name btw.) in `sage-env` if
 `SAGE_BUILD_TMPDIR` is set?

 That way this ticket would hardly collide with #11021, which fixes a lot
 in `sage-spkg` (and a bug in `sage-env` w.r.t. `BUILD`), also using
 `$BUILD` consistently there.

 I also would use `SAGE_BUILD_TMPDIR` "directly", without creating yet
 another subdirectory (`build`) in it; the spkgs are extracted into their
 own directories anyway.
