I think for this reason, nsample must not be part of the standard
build procedure. [...] Since the absence of such a policy leads to
insanity, I will be implementing it in the CMake build shortly. That

Policy effected, tested, and pushed to Darcs.
The only clever way I can think of to reverse the policy, is to build up
a public database of benchmark submissions for various target
configurations. Then the defaults could be target specific. It would
still be a matter of selecting defaults. A naive user cannot be trusted
to run stack-size.cmake.
Target specific results would require architectural canonization. Yeah,
./configure does that. Not sure about CMake.
