Indeed, although I might argue that BSDs are a bit of a special case,
with our integrated kernel + tool chain + libraries + system binaries
base systems. Anyhow, I prefer to retain the output directory but
don't feel it imposes a significant difficulty if we do not.

Yes, with LLD_REPRODUCE. Because most FreeBSD Makefiles build a single
binary per directory I didn't encounter significant stomping over the
.tar files (and I probably worked around cases where it happened by
rerunning without -i and linking one output object with ld.bfd before
trying again).
