It should work, but if you bump on anything that breaks, please let me
know.

The only tricky bit about all the WITH_XXX options that may affect
mtree output is that we have many of them.  Extracting a separate
mtree specfile for each WITH_XXX option and each *combination* of
these options may end up being too much work and complicate the build
glue a lot for far too little gain.

I am not sure if we can invest the time and code for *all* WITH_XXX
options, but it may be ok to do for a few large components, i.e. the
ones that appear in sysinstall menus as separate distributions :)
