Well, if we have per-package out-of-tree, then there is no rsync at all
anymore. The source code stays in the directory specified in
_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR, and only the build tree is in
output/build/<pkg>-<version>/.

However, this obviously works only for packages that use a sane build
system supporting out of tree build.

Best regards,

Thomas
