I want to write code that will *use* extensions where available, but will portably run on systems that don't have the extensions. Various parts need to detect the presence of some extensions, and then provide alternatives when they're not available. Of course, that means I need to able to *test* the alternatives. Thus, I want to be able to easily *disable* extensions & then see if the code compiles/links/runs correctly. My intent was to add a simple configure flag to disable extensions, to enable some basic testing in those cases. --- David A.
