It does slows the parsing a little but build in fact is faster (if you
build more than one mx6 or mx5 based board, for example).

The problem here is it is included in the kernel. Can you submit a bug
in bugzilla about this? So I can use this to collect the information.

We have this in more places, not just Qt, and it'd help a lot so I
will try to think on a generic solution for this.
