 I don't think this is the proper approach. The proper approach is
map/reduce, i.e. generate the pieces in per-package files and collect
them together in a final gathering stage. Obviously, this requires a
per-package target first, but that's anyway the way we want to go.

 that thread...

So I've marked this patch as Changes Requested in patchwork.

Best regards,

Thomas
