Comment(by plobsing):

 See the description of --without-core-nci-thunks from 'Configure.pl
 --help'
 {{{
    --without-core-nci-thunks
                         Build parrot without core-required
                         statically compiled NCI call frames
                         (useful for testing dynamic frame builders)
 }}}

 Note the key word here is '''core-required'''. Parrot core cannot operate
 without some means of obtaining these thunks.

 The only way the build of these thunks can be avoided is if there is a
 dynamic frame builder in use (eg: libffi). This option was provided for
 such cases and assumes the reader is familiar with the jargon describing
 the option before using it and therefore capable of making an informed
 decision regarding the suitability of this option to their situation.
