Actually the source package is used *two* places.  For the download and 
for PKG_BUILD_DIR.  It's needed for the download because you need the 
upstream tarball name, and it is also used for PKG_BUILD_DIR because 
general convention (at least of F/LOSS) for source tarballs is to have a 
subdirectory with <upstream-package>-<version> in the tarball (which is 
why PKG_BUILD_DIR uses <upstream-package>-<version>, not for an 
OpenWrt-specific reason).

Regards,

Daniel
