C:\repo\fpc>svn status | grep '^?' | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs rm -rf
'awk' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
 
And even besides the multiplatform angle, a simple

rm -rf buildwin32

would only delete one targets build files, and the source dir could be on
a different fs etc.

And there is not really a big disadvantage to having builddirs. (note I only
meant meant the practice of having build dirs as option, not configure or
anything else related to configure. A BUILD=../build to current make so to say)

That's what I did when I still had a slow link. Still related to checkout
size though.
