I have plans (and an intern working on it) to integrate the schema
checks into dtc. That's going to make turning on the schema checks
just a flag to dtc. I'm not sure if adding the complexity here is
worth it as I'd expect much of this patch to go away again.

Is there any negative impact on the absolute clean build time? I'm
more concerned about that than optimizing rerunning.
