Here is my 2c.
I tested the build out tonight and was able to get a runnable server. IMHO this change is way too
complicated for a patch and is taking far too long (no offense to anyone working on the conversion
but more of a comment on our current process).
I'm inclined to +1 the work Jason has done and move this to trunk. Then we all work through the
issues. Jason and others have been very diligent in working on this conversion (which is in several
months now I think).
Based on the responsiveness of Jason, Prasad and Anita I don't see a tremendopus amount of harm in
doing the merge and getting this done in trunk. Its not ideal but one doesn't rework the entire
build system every release.
I propose we +1 it...suck it up...and work with Jason to get this done. It will be painful for
everyone but I think right now Jason, Prasad and Anita are suffering way too much.
This isn't a server feature...this is a build system. Its bigger than a bread box. We all know
what we're doing and its time to get this done.

I hope to be able to merge this work to trunk in a week or so, so
please, please, please take some time to review the branch and vote (PMC
or not).
