Do you want this merged before next official snapshot?
Take care that this break current releng script, should be adapted to
newer commands.
./build.sh all_iso_single -> ./build.sh build single all
./build.sh all_iso_dual -> ./build.sh build dual all
./build.sh clear_dual -> ./build.sh clear dual
./build.sh purge_single -> ./build.sh purge single
etc...
Also iso images are now placed in "out" by default (without -o) instead
of ".", doing this more organized.
You may want to use newer -L and -V ;)
