Excellent point! I agree with you completely.

We should definately look at automating the build process and even
build environment, because it is a sensitive component in the build
process, and we should make LB smart enough to build with a build
environment other than the one that starts with /usr/bin/gcc.

However - I want it to remain optional rather than a requirement,
so that the entry level stays as low as possible for as many as
possible.

But one does not, and should not, exclude the other! :)
