It's no longer a hard requirement, because now we're on cmake rather
than mkfiles.pl, we _can_ compile the same source file multiple times
with different ifdefs.
I still think it's a better idea not to: I'd prefer that most of this
code base remained in the form of libraries reused between
applications, with parametrisation done by choice of what other
objects to link them to rather than by recompiling the library modules
themselves with different settings. But the latter is now a
possibility at need.
