Please don't use environment variables for configuration. One of the 
goals of BBv2 is to not rely on the fragile environment for such things. 
Please use a command line option instead, like "--build-dir=...". And 
there's no point in creating a subdir in the indicated directory the 
user is will end up creating a separate one anyway. And this makes it 
functionally equivalent to what BBv1 does.
