Comment 3 for bug 1943292

Just some notes from the sidelines: back in the day, it was common for build systems to tailor an executable for the host that built it, rather than the host that would run it. This caused no end of trouble.

Most software these days feels better prepared to compile on a kernel or processor of one vintage and execute on a kernel or processor of another vintage and still pick the best available capabilities of the target system. I'd hate to see this regress.

It may feel like more work but I believe in the long run it's less work overall to decouple the build environment from the execution environment.

Thanks
