Hi Neil,

You are creating a new directory buildtools/ which depends on mk/
We also have some scripts used in the build process:
	scripts/auto-config-h.sh
	scripts/depdirs-rule.sh
	scripts/gen-build-mk.sh
	scripts/gen-config-h.sh
	scripts/relpath.sh
I think we should move these scripts somewhere else, probably in mk.
So we would have only 2 directories for the build system and we would
keep the scripts directory only for dev tools.

If we want to make a step further, we can rename scripts/ to devtools/
and tools/ to usertools/.

Opinions?
