Last year, we had in our source package a directory "build" which
contained "configure" and a single subdir, which again contained
"configure", plus texk/, libs/. This year, in a checkout of TeXLive
upstream, we have the directory Build/ with subdirectoy source/. In
source, we have "configure" and the subdirs texk/, libs/, etc.
To me, this indicates that source/ corresponds to TeX/, and there should
be a "configure" script in the same directory where source/ is, in other
words in Build/

Since I created it myself, it can't be "correct"...
