I don't like that idea, either, BUT I recon that a smaller footprint is a good idea for _general_
usage. For example, I AM used to having two or three nmap versions in different directories: weirdly
patched ones, SVN ones, and official releases, too. That was kinda practical for the nmap talks I've
been giving. I could have a Qscan-enabled release, a development release, and a Stable release.
