I don't like the fully centralized version very much, as it makes it 
hard to dynamically add and remove stuff. The old system was half and 
half: the central one covered some pieces, but you could always add new 
stuff anywhere in the tree. The disadvantage was that you needed to 
explicitly list all directories that were to be included, of which we 
have a lot more now than we used to.

What is the problem with the current setup? You ave multiple build.info 
files for a lib, but do you need to replicate information in multiple 
places?

    Dirk
