I didn't mean for just this instance and this specific AES option (heck, I don't even use AES at all ;-), I'm just saying that anywhere within the mySQL .h files that has an option that someone may wish to edit in a practical scenario, should be changeable via the my.cnf file instead/in addition to. I appreciate you're taking the time to consider this. I think it just makes good logical sense too. The less people have to muck with compiling, the less chance of problems they'll have.
