But I don't feel that we should enforce this policy decision (has there
been a policy decisions about #ifdef crap???) on third party vendors.  It
is one thing to say that all code committed to our tree is passed through
unifdef first, and another to not provide an easy mechanism for identifying
source code version to third party vendors.

I want this for CAM, and so long as CAM remains an external component,
I'm acting in the same role as a third party vendor that has no interest
in maintaining two different code trees.
