} I guess it should be changed to conditionally enable building only if

The problem is that failure to (auto)load a module is an abortive error
(i.e. kills entire scripts/functions), whereas bin_notavail is a simple
command failure.  This makes it difficult to decide whether to omit a
module entirely or give it a clean failure mode.

Being halfway in between is the problem.
