trivial-build-system requires you to do a lot manually.  In this case
'(zero? (system* "tree"))' fails because it's not found in $PATH.  

And the build folder is empty because the builder doesn't put anything
there! :)  Since you're working from a git checkout here, you could
probably copy/compile things directly from the source checkout to 'out'.

Hope that helps,
