Is Schooner willing and able to put in the extra time to test the 
builds which do not come with standard libraries?  Many packages I have 
dealt with in the past cannot be built with system libraries only.  That 
is why many systems include a "third party libraries" subsystem and 
their source.  All that being said, if Schooner really wants to go down 
that path, then is he willing to put in the work of maintain it and what 
is the long term impacts?
