> I'd change the name of the subdirectories of build instead of the name of the build directory itself.
Yep that’s what I was thinking about (or if I wasn’t, I should have been :)

> IIRC distutils is more or less closed for development w.r.t. new features.
Not more or less: it is frozen.  The only exceptions are changes required by other changes like the pycache or ABI tag PEPs.

> Would that also apply to this feature request?
If we agree this is a bug, we can fix it.  What do RMs think?
