But, there is no reason to do two different builds here.  The only bits needed to build dispatch AFAICT, is the swift core library and the swift compiler.  Even if the swift overlay is required, we can add that build ordering.  The dispatch overlay is constructed in libdispatch itself.  So, we can just order the compiler build to occur prior to the libdispatch build, which needs to be built before SourceKit.

Aha, passing --reconfigure seems to have made a difference. That implies to me that something is incorrectly detecting when CMake generation needs to happen.
