No from me.

What do you mean with not for me? You have the CSafeLoader available and it is slow? Do you have some timings before and after the patch set for a "./waf configure" and "./waf build"? On my systems the configure needs less than a second with the CSafeLoader and the waf build setup time is less than 100ms.

I do not agree with conditional states of operation in the build system that
depend on packages a host has installed. If speed is an important factor all
users then I suggest you find a means to have it available automatically on the
hosts we support (Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS, Windows MINGW64 and Cygwin.

I am not sure if we should automatically install system Python packages on user machines.

The fall back is the Python PyYAML package available through the RTEMS sources. This is what we use currently. For RTEMS users, this is acceptable since they are not supposed to touch the YAML files. For RTEMS maintainers, not having the cache makes working with the build system more efficient.

If they system PyYAML package is not installed, then you get now a hint to install it:

Setting top to                           : /home/EB/sebastian_h/src/rtems
Setting out to : /home/EB/sebastian_h/src/rtems/build Regenerate the build specification cache. Install the PyYAML Python package to avoid this. The cache regeneration needs a couple of seconds...
