Comment (by knarf):

 We could let Cactus search other existing configurations for identical
 config-info files (apart from the timestamps...) and copy the relevant
 files (using hard links if possible), instead of rebuilding them. Of
 course that would mean that we would have to have a way to a) let Cactus
 know which thorn builds a library and which not and b) which files belong
 to the result of building that library.
