Yes.  But I might not be using it right.

There needs to be a way to set this for each target platform copied 
just before the DB runs.  The script for setting this needs to be smart 
enough to differentiate among the different kinds of stacks.  This 
won't work for stacks that go in system dependent folders.

The problem is the nested dependencies of stacks.  I'd hate to fiddle 
with library stacks.

Some people have been suggesting that only the very top level 
starts-using libraries, so this might be done only for the app stack.
