Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-592:
-------------------------------------------
The downside is on the theoretical side and for me its a hold the line type of
position. I wouldn't veto a patch for it but I'm not about to write it.
The issue is that once we start doing allowing the official releases to have
all sorts of conditional compilation options we have to officially support each
permutation of those options. Spending extra time tracking down weird
compilation configurations is not something I would enjoy.
And there's also the fact that this is a pretty easy hack to remove all parts
of the build system that'd require JS, cURL, and ICU. And the build system
doesn't change *that* often so it wouldn't be hard too hard to keep in sync
outside of trunk.
