needed with the solution from Khem, if I properly understand things.

>From a conceptual point of view it seems better to mangle the target subdir
name  in work (e.g. ppce300c3-oe-linux-uclibc) or introduce a subdir in
TMPDIR for  (e.g. ppce300c3-oe-linux/uclibc )

(actually I seem to recall that we have or had something in OE as well,
something like deploy/glibc)
