You always need it, but you do not need to build it every time.
For example, after a "cvs co -d" I do a full build of cocoon,
but for each build after that I use local.* files to cause only
cforms to be rebuilt, thus preventing ant from having to evaluate
the other parts of Cocoon only to find out what I already knew,
they did not need to be rebuilt. Does this make more sense now?
