Then quite a few things need to be fixed:
- host tool generation (signrom, I think there were several approached
under discussion - but what is preferred now?)
- disabling the build for incompatible tool chains (mingw32?)
- do not automatically copy stuff into the source dir (absolute no-go
if you want to keep it clean from build outputs)
So for now I would simply disable the build - unless I missed that there
are already patches pending to fix all this.
