This has the potential to become large and surprising to users.  Given it
is not configuration nor valuable except in the case of diagnosis, I'd
argue that it more properly belongs in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/buildstream
somewhere.

Also, I'd be tempted to rotate that log somehow, but I appreciate that
might be out of scope for bst itself.
