Yeah, I missed that point.  From an end-user prospective though my 
assertion makes a lot of sense.

Using 2.6.2 in production builds here is not possible.  My code-base 
uses HEAVY namespace implements.  2.7.1 is the only thing that compiles 
my projects.

make clean all DEBUG=1 OS_TARGET=darwin CPU_TARGET=x86_64 CPU_SOURCE=x86_64


Removing the PP=... was the only way I could get  :-) 
build-stamp.x86_64-darwin

Thanks Jonas!
