The thing is that it is easy to test against Scarab's build system. It takes
all of 20 seconds and it also gives you a really good idea of what you are
breaking when you make changes.
This goes back to the whole dependency tracking thing...we need to be really
conscience of this...because Scarab is going against head gives us an early
warning system just like Gump provides us...without it, we would be stuck
with not knowing what we are breaking for other people.
