No, that's not what I meant, and I'm sorry if I gave that impression.  I like 
native-comp, I use it myself, and at some point I expect to release a version of 
emacs for the Cygwin distribution with native-comp enabled.  What I tried to say 
is that if maintainers choose to enable a build configuration that is not 
enabled by default, they should be aware of the consequences and should deal 
with those consequences as they see fit.

Agreed.  And I don't see a problem with making changes at that level.
