Actually, this is not doable, unfortunately.  That's because
--with-tcl=$(ROOT)/usr/lib would find a tclConfig.sh file with...
non-ROOT paths.

This is going to be a problem for SFW in general.  There are going to be
*lots* of instances of this.

One option would be to mount the ws under $(ROOT) area rather than the
reverse, so that one can chroot into $(ROOT).  But that'd also mean
installing at least ON into $(ROOT) as well, at the very, very least.

If the build system were using ZFS boot then we could clone / into
$(ROOT), mount/create the ws underneath, and chroot to build.  Or maybe
we could use zones.

I think we need the gatekeepers to weigh in on this.
