If the gcl compiler were as fast as it was 10 years ago, the problem you
mention would not be so vexing.

My experience is that, if I try some incremental changes and re-compile
the build, the gcl build is always broken (this has been true for as
long as I can remember). My only recourse is to nuke src/binary-gcl and
rebuild from scratch. That is why I bring up the slow compiler.
