I am on the fence with this one.  It is always best to have an 
incremental build that you can trust.  However, I have to think pretty 
hard to come up with a case where you could change an object size 
without changing a header file that would cause a relink anyway.  I can 
come up with ways to do it, but you would almost have to try....
