Previously, if you attempted to use certain functions in the build_util crate...and your output directory happened to not include any parent directories with the exact name "target"...
...the build script would burn 100% of a core forever, until you killed it.
This doesn't affect Hubris-proper but does affect out of tree builds. The original code was arguably wrong anyway, so, this fixes that.
