But what does that mean, an "ultra-extensible build system?" Can you
point me at an example of an extant ultra-extensible build system?
Can you point me at a ~100K LOC project or larger that needed
ultra-extensibility to gracefully implement the build? I am not yet
familiar with all the build systems out there in all the various
languages. But I've yet to see such an ultra-extensible build system
being taken good advantage of. What I am sure of, is a lot of people
perceive the need for ultra-extensibility. My working hypothesis is,
lacking experience with large scale build systems, they want assurance
that they can handle any problem that comes at them. The abstract
notion of ultra-extensibility gives them comfort. I'd very much like
to see a build system that delivers concrete "ultra-extensibility" and
can demonstrate the $$$$$ profit in using such an approach.
