I was going to recommend we remove the compiler plug-in API OR remove the
monolithic build of the compiler. It complicates the project, in my opinion
unnecessarily, unless we ONLY use the plug-in method. Having to maintain the
"option" of using a plug-in is a build issue for me.
This project is complex enough as it is with 20+ languages to support...
We have a long term goal to move everything to CMake. Lots of work.
PLUGIN adds branches to that work.
