we've been dealing with buildrom here all summer, as well as
buildroot. They're wonderful when they work. Frequently,
we find ourselves driving into a corner and the only way out is rm -rf
and a clean checkout (this is also true for uclibc and busybox on
their own!). The task they are doing is extremely complex and hard to
do well. I'd rather not pull their unreliability into the coreboot
build sequence.
