I've sent some of the changes for emacs-build-system to 45316. The rest only lives on wip-emacs as of yet. The first 5 patches on that branch are the ones that include the big changes (well, four of them anyway), one of which is not yet up to review as it results from the combined fixes to 45316 and 47458, the rest are mostly small "fixup" commits.
