We're talking about 4.x. It's on the way out. So it's about increased
complexity (own do-extract target) on the well supported systems, or
about another dependency on the old and "we support it if it isn't a
hassle" versions. For the linux ports Boris is needing this part, I
vote for another dependency (like we have already with USE_GCC in other
ports).

Bye,
Alexander.
