Usually one doesn't want to do this, but in the unusual situation where the
distributed tarball includes incorrect pre-built content (e.g. a distfile
distributed with already-build Linux object files, which I've encountered
once...), your pre-build block above is a fine way to accomplish it. It also
gives you a good place to insert a comment about why you're doing this.
