this will happen if you have BUILDDIR option specified on makepkg.conf or rebuilding on the same folder

Additional info:
part of the build log:

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘build’: File exists
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘build-0.10’: File exists

I don't see this as a bug. This happens when you use "makepkg -o" twice without removing $srcdir. This happens with any package that creates a directory or adds new files using a patch.
