Nick Wellnhofer commented on CLOWNFISH-60:
------------------------------------------

Image lemon crashes on s390 platform. Now somebody will have to report bug against Clownfish-CFC, Clownfish, and Lucy, and you will have to fix it three times and to release a new code three times.

This argument goes both ways. Imagine the system lemon has a bug and produces wrong code for Lucy. I've been in a situation like this in another project with {{re2c}} and it isn't fun to debug.

I'd prefer that our bundled version was used by default and that using your system's lemon can be enabled with a configure option.
