It's not a matter of preference but which solution really works. In short
it should work fine and consistently when launched from topdir and from
the nolibc-test dir. I personally don't know the effect of O= when run
from a subdir (is it relative to the current dir or topdir?).

Yeah I'd rather avoid ugly things for 6.6 now.
