Comment (by simonpj):

 I don't particularly want to ''change'' the build directory; I just want
 it to be right here at the root of my build tree, where it has always
 been.  (That is `-o$PWD`, I suppose.)  Is that not a good default place
 for it to be?

 I suppose I can get used to doing something in UserSettings in every build
 tree; but I'd prefer the old behaviour.  Is it difficult to achieve for
 some reason?
