I've reworked the patch to incorporate the improvements that have come out of this thread, and I've attached it to a new issue: <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCY-127>. However, I think that instead of applying this patch, we may want to prioritize transparency and portability over build speed and work up an alternative patch that begins a transition to Makefiles. It's nice to knock 30 seconds off the build time (at the cost of some minor complexity), but IMO it's more important to move towards a build system that everyone can use and understand.
