3. --disable-documentation? Why? Back in Lilypond-2.4 aera it was the documentation that triggered lots of bugs, especially in texinfo.
I wanted to get the base program running, and building the docs was screwing it up. Adding docs was a plan for later.
4. ec-fonts-mftraced: use binaries or build from (MetaFont) source?
Building from source takes a really long time, so why not use the pre-packaged binaries that we would end up getting anyway? If the result is the same, I see no reason to waste time, especially on slower architectures, to build all the fonts. Thanks for the comments thus far.
