Ok, that's fair... but in that case, I think you would want to enforce (or strongly suggest) it, so I sent you another patch set that uses AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR to store build artifacts on a build/ subdirectory if an in-tree build is attempted. Regardless of the solution you pick, I think keeping .gitignore up to date is important to prevent mistakes when working with the git tree. Let me know what you think.
