Public bug reported:
While attempting to build a library as a part, I need to follow these
instructions:
cd build/autotools
autoreconf -i
./configure CFLAGS='-O2'
make
The autotools plugin does almost exactly the right thing here, except
that it doesn't cd into build/autotools first. I tried using the
source-subdir option to make it build in that subdir, but unfortunately
that's not meant to be the top of the source tree (for example, src/ is
right next to build/ in this repo). Unfortunately source-subdir meant
that all I had was my automake/m4 stuff without any C sources!
It would be extremely helpful if any of these build plugins had an
option for a directory to cd into before either each step or the chain
of steps as a whole.
