I will remove the menuconfig entry. It is used by the host variants of s6
and s6-rc, but having host-execline in their respective dependency lists
is enough. It is very unlikely that the user want to write post-build
scripts using execline with having built host-s6 and friends.

Yep! The skarnet build system may follow the "./configure; make; make
install" convention, but internally, this is another story. So the
libraries are stored in a subdirectory.

See the skalibs review for details about this topic.

Thanks for the review.
