Right. that would be a wasted effort indeed.

Right. and the good news is: it would have no impact on non-binfilter
build, and binfilter is big enough with enough sub-dmake
to be able to keep most build machine quite buzy on its own.. so
putting it after tail_build should not impact the elapsed time too
badly

Well it is built right before tail_build because tail_build is growing
and we are getting to the point were binfilter is indeed on the
critical path.
