Yes. And here another point should be brought up. This proposal should |
18 |
be wider and consider similar changes for the most common used |
19 |
operations on all phases. Implementing it only for |
20 |
src_{configure,compile} won't feel so useful as implementing similar |
21 |
variables for most phases. |
