Details

Today options=(!makeflags) only clears MAKEFLAGS in the build() function. However, custom MAKEFLAGS are still present in other steps of the build (in prepare() for example).

Seems like it would avoid confusion and even very rare problems if options=(!makeflags) was extended to be equivalent to not having MAKEFLAGS set in /etc/makepkg.conf
This task depends upon

We intentionally stopped doing this in commit 02a0bf550a22e199f48537b7eee87361b112e8a0 specifically because it is illegal from a makepkg perspective to do building/linking in prepare().
