Let me ask you a question: Who do you think is more capable in compiling or modifying the Source? The average Linux User who just wants to run a server or an Developer who has enough knowledge in C++ and experience with the gprof tools?
I bet an years pay that the average Developer has no trouble modifying the makefiles to his needs but the average User will have a hard time figuring out what is needed and what just for development. Especially when there is virutally no consistent documentation.

To be totally frank I sometimes dont know if I should congratulate you for your continous efforts or strangle you because of your rather strange attitudes regarding some topics.

Well, I wish you good luck with your project. I am off.
