Going w/ this thought, it makes a whole lot of sense, I remember talk about a DL compiling service to create specific ISOs quickly. Well maybe that was nebulous and embryonic, but there are compiling services out there, SourceForge.net being one of them. I am not sure what the ideal compiling server would look like, but it would certainly require GCC and it could take advantage of cross compiling opening a world of other devices to DL.
