Ryan did that already. Or haven't you read what he said? Personally,
like most everyone else around here, I can't judge which method is
technically better. Perhaps some third party that has done both methods
and an analysis on each can report back with results.

What is *currently* in trunk is an untested (but hopefully working)
build. All I'm going to be putting in is a *known* method and what we
have been using; what should have been there since September. Surely,
you can appreciate that.

If, later, we find more compelling reasons to switch to -B, we can.

I *have* waited for three days on this. We've gotten nowhere. Putting
our original method back for now gives us what we had before. To leave
it as it is now would mean there is an unknown entity concerning the
toolchain in trunk.
