That would probably make my life noticeably easier.

That's not too surprising since I first posted this review request 4.5 months
ago.  Let me download the new source and rebuild.

When and where would I want to do this?  During compile-time perhaps?

(There are other blockers that I haven't addressed in this message.  I was just
