[Kst] build problems...

--enable-final is a fairly controversial option: it cats everything together 
and compiles in one go, with the idea that this allows better optimizations 
by the compiler.  It might.... it might not....

But it requires some things, unique global object names across all files, to 
be true to work... And since developers more or less never use --enable-final 
when developing, it often tends to not work.

Like now.
