``mescc-tools-extra`` contains some additional programs, namely filesystem
utilities ``cp`` and ``chown``. This allows us to have one unified
directory for our binaries. Futhermore, we also build ``sha256sum``, a
directory for our binaries. Furthermore, we also build ``sha256sum``, a
checksumming tool, that we use to ensure reproducibility and authenticity
of generated binaries. We also build initial ``untar``, ``ungz`` and ``unbz2``
utilities to deal with compressed archives.

However, the docs are also wrong, as the latest of the 4.9.x series does not
