True, but usually you build whatever on a machine that have capabilities
to run it (not talking about cross-compiling).  And besides, I think its
bad style to build something, and then bail after its done about
something that could have been tested at setup time (think glibc testing
tls/nptl capabilities only during pkg_preinst ...).
