Sure, and I want to use the existing one, now I could probably modify
the kernel target to use a different *swan.

I did that....

and make all your changes in that checked out version of apps

I found that in the corresponding apps/busybox, there is no unpacked
busybox source. Will buildtool use such a source when it exists or just
unpack the tar archive regardless?

I modified the busybox set up in src/busybox, but this led to nothing,
buildtool did not recognize the changes.
