Comment(by ryandesign@…):
I am not a YAP user so you will have to bear with me. :) None of these
variants add dependencies, so they appear to just be adding internal YAP
features. Is there any disadvantage to enabling them all the time, or any
advantage to disabling them?
For example, you have defined a variant "tabling" which is in the
default_variants. Is there any reason why a user would ever want to
disable this?
And you have defined the variant "condor" but it's not on by default. Why
would a user not want this?
Just trying to understand why YAP is different from other software, where
we prefer to always compile in all possible options (unless they bring in
big dependencies, in which case we might make variants).
