[issue22262] Python External Libraries are stored in directory above where source code is located.

[sbspider]

New submission from sbspider:

When trying to compile cpython, it puts dependencies like tkinter in the directory above the hg directory. Since I have a highly defined directory structure, this can become quite annoying. Therefore, I would like to propose having the build system download the files into the same root directory as where the code is, but in a folder that will be ignored for source control.
