| No, forget what I'm saying. I'm working on some things and I forgot all
| other things. The problem, which I consider has to be fixed (probably

Definitely, there must be something there that needs fixinig.  I'll
get to that later.

Please don't.

this is weird.

well, I don't know whether it is marvelous to take 3 hours to build.
I don't know how long it used to take before. :-)

There is something that I did to _marginally_ improve the build time:
remove most of the sub-shells present in Axiom gold or silver.  On
mnay platforms (especially, with previous solaris implementation of
sh), sub-shells can be wonderfully expensive to create.
