I'm pretty sure someone proposed something like this (relocating output) just before danny. Changing something like this just before release is a *really* bad idea. It breaks the docs and the assumptions the autobuilder and several scripts (e.g. runqemu and the qemuimage testing) make about where output ends up. So as I said last time, if we want to do something like this, lets do it at the start of development of a release, not the end.
