Not for reasons such as allowing patches like this. Making all builds verbose by default has both advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantages include making builds possibly so noisy that when one runs them during daily work, once ignores all output. Including important compiler warnings. (This is the same reason why it's a bad idea to let a codebase accumulate a lot of compiler warnings!) I'd be ok with DH_VERBOSE enabling the verbose behavior, and the buildds could then enable it. -- see shy jo
