That's one way to look at it, yeah, but that doesn't capture all of the benefits. Those three parameters have given us *numerous* subtle bugs due to typos and the like that go undetected on the committer's platform but cause complete build breakage on other platforms. Reducing to one parameter saves the work that causes these bugs. --Cliff
