I didn't test all of them but of the ~5 I did test all failed, so I
just assumed none contain libftd-devel, since you have patchew
manually check it out.

Oh, I missed that we supported that.  We can still cope with that by
using the 'git stash create' trick the docker script used before. e.g.

   stash=`git stash create`
   git clone --shared . $vroot_dir
   cd $vroot_dir
   git checkout $stash

the cloned repo contains the stash object, because we use --shared to
directly share the .git dir contents.

Daniel
