Why do they need it, is the question. If it's supported and stable, it |
| 10 |
should just be enabled, end of story, in my opinion. I believe it was |
| 11 |
optional in KDE due to it not being stable for some reason (either GCCs |
| 12 |
at the time were sketchy or their build system problems weren't smoothed |
| 13 |
out, I guess). |

Why not enable it by default and unconditionally (other than GCC version |
| 19 |
being used supporting it) in this specific case? |
