I agree that fixing build-script is the better approach than to introduce
another wrapper around it.
But there are many other needs for scripts, for example the (already existing)
cmpcodesize script for comparing code size.
And I think it makes sense to create a new directory rather than
I agree with Jordan (and Chris) on this. I think that we should try to
simplify the build process that we have rather than encouraging more build
script wrappers. The current build process is pretty cumbersome which is
why I think that many people have wrapper scripts. In fact, it seems that
