I was about to say! I just did an update to a version with this, and as it
happens, my build dir also contains about four full copies of tmp-glibc and
sstate-cache corresponding to different versions of pseudo I was comparing
between...

I'd say maybe both $BUILDDIR and $BUILDDIR/conf. Although it might not be a
horrible idea to think about cleaning out sticky bits, because it occurs to
me: pseudo is not stripping the set* bits when writing to the filesystem.
Which means that a build directory can end up containing files owned by the
build user, and setuid, which is maybe a Bad Thing.

... It may be that pseudo should strip those bits from the filesystem.
