There's no reason why a default fallback to the current system

IOW I consider this cure to be worse (more likely to break a release

users) than the problem,
I cannot see how this is more likely to break a release
systematically. And it's only as intransparent as we make it (e.g.,
apart from the "compiling", "assembling" and "linking", there could
just as well be a "Determining needed libraries using gtk-config..."
message)
specially since now we don't have to recompile FPC
anymore for a lib change.
I do not understand this last part. Are you talking about dynamically
loading libraries at run time or so?
