I'm fairly sure it's not supported;
I remember seeing an ancient patch to add this on savannah, but I hadn't 
noticed it when new.  It might be easy to apply, but I suspect it's too old to 
be helpful.
Even if I had seen it I'm not sure I'd have jumped in to apply it myself, since 
I've never been on a system with so little disk space that I needed/wanted to 
build that way.
