No, since  -DSUFFIX=\"-0.12-slow\" is passed to every g++ call (check
with pretty=0). Hence all objects will be recompiled, since their
command-line has changed. There is hardly a way to avoid that, except
for putting such stuff inside Omega and #define those macros only for a
few translation units.
