The discussion within bug report #432713
(https://bugs.debian.org/432713) is relevant here as well.
Nevertheless I think it might be worthwhile providing the stubs of the
special builds of "advanced logging" and "large strings" via an optional
Debian package.
Unfortunately it is not sufficient to only provide the stubs of the
special builds. The makensis executable is not generic enough to cope
with the default and special builds. So for each build the stubs and the
respective makensis compiler is required.
My preference would be to have just one generic makensis compiler
dynamically supporting the default and special builds.
