It depends on how much work you think it is.  It would be nice if it 
were an easy change.  With my new system I'm finding that gnuplot 
compiles in less than half a minute it seems.  I got in the habit of 
building separate from the source tree because some of these large C++ 
projects take close to an hour to build so comparing via rebuilding 
isn't efficient.

Thanks,
