I'm wondering why I put it at /tmp/scratch in the first place when we started using gitlab, and struggling to come up with a justification. In fact I'm not entirely convinced we really need a SCRATCH_DIR env variable at all, since AFAICT, we only use it one place for creating $VROOT. In terms of standalone reproduction of build env, it would be saner to use VOORT=$CWD/vroot, which I think would probably work under GitLab ok too, and do away with SCRATCH_DIR.
