Comment:
That's not supported, but you can use `lndir` to make a tree of symlinks,
and build in that.
There's an `lndir` program in `utils/lndir` in a GHC tree, which has a few
tweaks to improve it for use with a GHC tree. Actually, I've just noticed
it doesn't ignore `.git` directories, but I'll push a patch to make it do
so.
