+qemu 5.2.0 configure script explodes when in read only directory
+
+I extracted the qemu 5.2.0 source as one user, and then tried to run `./configure --help` in that directory as a different user. Normal autoconf configure scripts have no problem with this but yours goes into an infinite loop printing nonsense:
+
+Using './build' as the directory for build output
+mkdir: build: Permission denied
+touch: build/auto-created-by-configure: No such file or directory
+./configure: line 37: GNUmakefile: Permission denied
+./configure: line 59: cd: build: No such file or directory
+Using './build' as the directory for build output
+mkdir: build: Permission denied
+touch: build/auto-created-by-configure: No such file or directory

+This is an automated cleanup. This bug report has been moved to QEMU's
+new bug tracker on gitlab.com and thus gets marked as 'expired' now.
