Yes, I recall, back at the time D6 introduced this implicit building
feature, asking Jason what would happen to our packages when the
"latest-greatest" changed to being D7. It certainly looks like something
we have to address, e.g. making alternative bpg files available for use
with non-current versions of Delphi. It seems like a crock to me, an
ill-advised "enhancement" virtually guaranteed to break third-party packages.
