Hi Ulrich,=20

	Thank you for that. This is pretty much what I was looking for as I can=20
use the .if block to add in only the pieces I want. The src.conf solution w=
as=20
an option, but since both make.conf and src.conf are called, I ended up=20
basically undoing everything in src.conf that I did in make.conf; and that=
=20
didn't work so well as I kept breaking the build (couldn't find headers and=
=20
all sorts of thing). No doubt, it was the way that I did it.. Your solution=
 is=20
cleaner and makes sense to me.=20

Thanks again,=20
