There are certainly a lot of options to tweak it, but that makes it more complex. I was a little dissapointed with BDB's look but don't touch way of working. And always that fear that the environment would break or an update would fail. So it's on time if Oracle finally gets to smooth this sharp points.

It took a full day until 4.5.20 finally turned up - I'm building it now and I see Oracle haven't stepped in and sorted out the ludicrous time it takes "make check" to run (many hours!)...
