There has to be a way to call out what works and what doesn't work and

be done in one fell swoop. Hooks like this in -current allow for this
to be done as a group effort.
It would be very unlikely that we retain the semantics all the way until
a -stable release.
I am not (yet) criticizing the patches to the build system as I want
to preserve my innocence ;) ... but perhaps if the semantics are not
finalized this should be done in a branch. It is my opinion that in
general we are not using SVN branches as much as we should.
IMO branching is great for something that causes instability, known
performance issues or won't build. This is not the same as "changes
build system".
Putting things like this on branches is likely a good way to imo kill
discussion.
Right now we have discussion, it's rather healthy. Let's take a while
to think about this before saying this all should be done in a branch.
