Another argument against widespread inc files: they encourage the
impression that maintaining multiple versions is just a matter of
having a .inc file.  The moment you start having to put
version-specific statements into a .bb you've entered a world of pain
in keeping the .bb files in sync, moving options into the .inc as they
become used by all versions, and purging old version-specific
statements.
