Adding features that are enabled with #ifdef HAVE_DEVELOPMENT would be a good thing.
No. Compile time options are evil, most of the time. I wanna use the standard fedora libvirt package for my work (except when hacking libvirt itself, obviously). "Oh, you can do foo, but you have to recompile with --enable-foo first." is a non-starter.
If you are a developer and want to develop something, I think it a great thing to have a developement package or distro. If you want to have the same features as others, you are no more than a user and want something stable. Stefan
