OSW makes heavy use of C++ templates, which at compile time results in a
sort of combinatoral explosion as it recompiles the same piece of code
over and over for every known type, of which there are many -- at least,
I think that is what is happening, to be honest I don't entirely
understand the type/template system in OSW.

I think we have a 1.2.4 release, but I have not been testing on linux
lately (rather, macos x), so I'm not sure what the situation is.  I'll
try it out later today and report back.
