Writing to the build directory at installation time is bad, really bad, and for our base system builds (which does contain several libtool'd stuff, such as libgcj) I am already preventing this by using systrace(1).
I certainly agree that writing to the build directory at installation time is bad. Ideally, the build directory should be effectively "read only" at install time since the install is often done by a different user than the user which built the software.
