Eglibc and gcc, at least, support building with ${B} != ${S} so it might
be easier/quicker to just blow away the whole ${B} tree rather than
trying to distclean it.
I imagine that most modern-ish autotools-based packages will also build
fine in that configuration, though there are bound to be some that
don't. It's hard to say whether there are likely to be more or fewer of
those than there are ones where "make distclean" fails.
