Should be OK.

Yes it is. The build scripts do a lot of stuff in preparation for the
real build. But as far as I know nothing of it should create a
directory. The first operation that creates a directory should print the
following line:

[ 1/99] Compiling testsuite/include/rtems/bsd/test/network-config.h.in

Anyway: To find out how far you get into the build scripts, I added a
few debug messages. Could you try to apply the attached patch and see
whether it prints some messages. Note that the messages are not really
clean and it seems that there is a bug that prints them two times. But
they should give a hint when the build process breaks.

Best Regards
