the "general consensus" was to enable code that stress compilation paths and
built without care too much whether the default is the option that mostly
distros will want. For instance, in MeeGo we will want to disable this option
when we're going to ship X for the products.

Therefore, just leave the patch like this which is fine. Thanks!
