Probably as much as possible should go in CPP:D:Build, unless there  
are aspects of it that would also be nice to have in the core, and  
they wouldn't generate too much clutter.

In general I'm leery of messing with filehandles too much in the  
core, because the people can't do their own messing if they want to.
