commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=feb0877015cc0c644129e69276b3000c83742750
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

$(BUILD_DIR) is a nice place to put files generated during the build.
With the advent of user-supplied step-hooks, they may want to store
some information on the build.

Export BUILD_DIR to that effect; update manual accordingly.
