Theoretically it should be possible with a combination of chroot'ed environment
and some trickery.

A *much* easier route is to do a Docker-based build. See:
   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1323
for more details (and feel free to pitch in wrt. making it
a go-to build process for Bigtop ;-)).

Thanks,
Roman.
