This makes no sense. The patch comes from Debian, so surely it is NOT
Buildroot-specific. That's just an excuse not to upstream it :-)
So I did send it upstream:
https://lore.kernel.org/selinux/20251227143911.1630813-1-thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com/
I don't know if it will be accepted of course, but at least I've tried.

This patch was passing --no-build-isolation only when $(DESTDIR) was
not empty.
In the context of Buildroot, this means that --no-build-isolation was
passed for the target libselinux (which is installed with
DESTDIR=$(TARGET_DIR)), but --no-build-isolation was not passed for the
host libselinux (which is installed with prefix=$(HOST_DIR), but an
empty $(DESTDIR).
So, I've moved --no-build-isolation outside of this condition, which
solves the issue that your patch "package/libselinux: host-python3
needs SSL support" was trying to solve.
Also, as very often your patch was missing a very critical piece of
information: since when was this failing? Without this information, we
cannot merge your patches. We've asked you time and time again to
provide this important piece of information, but you continue to omit
this information, putting on the reviewers/maintainers the burden of
doing the necessary investigation. I would _really_ appreciate if you
could improve on this. Basically, *everytime* you send a patch fixing
something, it must *always* *always* *always* explain when the problem
was introduced.
Thanks a lot for your contributions!
Thomas
