Yeah, this really is annoying.  Sorry about that.

Maybe someone would be interested in looking at adding precompiled
header support to the build system?  It's got some funky pitfalls:
   http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.0.2/gcc/Precompiled-Headers.html
but should be reasonably straightforward.  I don't know how much of a
win it would be.  Anything that made builds faster would sure help...
