I'm trying to cross-compile some packages for MIPS 64 and when I go to
setup bootstrap.sh I get the following error:

This is because somebody modernized the bootstrap APKBUILDs to use 
automatically generated $builddir.  We will need to either fix the automatic 
generation of $builddir in bootstrap case or restore setting $builddir on 
these APKBUILDs.

I'm not sure which way we should go.
