It feels cleaner to me: if I set `$SAGE_BUILD_TMPDIR=/tmp`, then rather
than producing many subdirectories of `tmp`, everything will live in
`/tmp/build`. It's easier to clean up by hand, and `make clean` is easier
to implement this way; otherwise, I suppose it would have to delete
`/tmp/atlas-3.8.4.p1/`, `/tmp/blas-...`, etc. Or `make clean` could not
modify SAGE_BUILD_TMPDIR at all, but the Make manual suggests that `make
clean` (and `make distclean`) should "Also delete files in other
directories if they are created by this makefile."
