Yep, people did discover that the way we do it now is not the most
"correct", but it's hard to formulate what is "correct" when it comes
to building packages in docker. Patches are welcome, and since code
freeze is scheduled for today, there's plenty of time for the search of
a better way: until May 1st or so only patches to stable will be
accepted.

Keep in mind that everything seems to be working not just on Linux
hosts, I think some people build packages on OS X too.
