This should probably be documented in config(1) or some other "how the
build process works" document.  So far as I could tell, the old method
should be considered an implementation detail, not an alternative.
That said I agree this probably deserves some broader consideration,
so perhaps doc@ is the best place to discuss? Or would a developer
focussed ML like hackers@ be better?
