For splitting to be "cheaper" (in terms of space and computation) than
using a separate output, the origin sources would have to be split into
core/sc-ide parts and be able to build the resulting parts distinctly.

I have to check, but I don't expect the IDE to be buildable reusing
supercollider-core as an input; I'd expect it to depend on many source
files in the project. If so, I'll opt for multiple outputs to spare the
build farm from recompiling/testing the same thing in double, otherwise
I'll opt for splitting.

This might take some time to happen as I have another patch set which is
of higher priority, so anyone should feel free to try beating me to it.

Thanks for reviewing!
