 And how many developers actually do it? 

I hope many :-)

I haven't tried compiling FGFS for a while but one use
to be able to do something like

cd $FGFS
mkdir release
cd release
../configure $my_options
make


cd FGFS
mkdir debug
cd debug
../configure $my_debug_options
make

Cheers

But you aren't one of them, right? Otherwise you would have said
so. But that's not even the point. You *can* now have all three
versions around. Nobody keeps you from doing that.

They question is, if the waste of disk space for the few developers
warrants a change in the build system. I say no, and I've given
reasons for it. If someone disagrees, s/he should better have
counter-arguments. (Though hopes are nice, too. :-}
