-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Currently the `--build-root` setting is respected only partially:
* The `test` rule appears to be placing all testsuite build artefacts
right in the GHC tree `./testsuite`.
* Hadrian puts its own binaries also in the GHC tree, into the
`./hadrian/X` directory, where `X` depends on whether we build with Cabal
or Stack.
We should improve on this and provide more guarantees about where all
build artefacts go.
