Also true.

Owww. Not only would it take *ages,* there's a potential makefile hell in
there...
> One advantage of RULE compiling its own, is that it really helps to

> binaries.
Yep.
> The compatibility that RULE will keep, is the directory structure,
> package management, and other lower level stuff.
Yep.
