As I wrote at [1] there are some scenarios where the build system and
related tools would like to store persistent state. Some uses for this
include:
* Automatically recording previous build logs, compiler warnings, and
test results.
* Holding build environments (downloaded Mercurial extensions,
downloaded or built toolchains, etc).
* Global mach/mozconfig config files
* Caching of state such as last bootstrap time, last Mercurial extension
update check, etc.
Let me suggest another: keeping track of successfully built object
directories, so that remote testing commands can guess MOZ_HOST_BIN
candidates.
