Hmm... If source is not shared across builds, what is advantage of build out 
of sources? 

I see two advantages:
  - No duplication of source between host and target. But finaly, only a few 
(and small) package are concerned. Shall we care about this?
  - To make build of a package outside of Buildroot easier. In this case, did 
you consider to build in a subdirectory of source? It does not allow to share 
source between host and target but may be sufficient and may solve a bunch of 
questions.

Currently, when you bump your version of Buildroot, you have to clean all. 
Buildroot may provide a rule to also cleaning source directory.
