It will need to grow as we expand the amount of platform-dependent code, but I suggest we try to keep things as simple as possible. > which is easy to alter by developers locally but isn't really meant > to be a product build system.

I don't think it is tied to project incubation, but I agree that we need a switch that allows debug/release compilation. And if it is debug by default that is fine too. > This is what my patch did (if I > didn't miss some places in classlib makefiles). > > Add release switch later when it is needed. Now... is it important to have it? > Is it necessary to build classlib even with -mpentium3? I don't think so. That's a different topic -- we should decide which architectures are 'officially' supported.
