Comment:

 `sdist` needs to find pre-processors. That requires the
 `ProgramConfiguration` which we get during the configure step. We could
 use the `defaultProgramConfiguration` but then we will fail if we need any
 non-standard programs.

 `clean` does not need the `LocalBuildInfo` at all. The current code uses
 it but it's not justified.
