I am not sure whether this is really a problem for NDS. I think back in 
the days we introduced the possibility to conditionally compile Indeo3 
because of the NDS, on the other hand IIRC Neil said that it didn't help 
(much? at all?), since all unused code is stripped in the linking phase 
(or in the strip phase, can't remember) anyway.
