Do these same changes need to be done at the gyp level somewhere, or has the
build system completely migrated to GN at this point?

[Jess, 2016/03/07 21:09:21]

Blimp builds are entirely GN based and, for our use, gyp is entirely deprecated.
This arg should NOT be used outside blimp, but let me know if you'd prefer for
it to also appear in the gyp for the sake of consistency.

[Alexei Svitkine (slow), 2016/03/07 21:17:44]

Ah OK. Fine to keep it just in the GN file. Please add a comment above the block
about it, so it's clear to (someone like me who didn't know the above) that it's
not an accidental omission.

[Jess, 2016/03/07 22:28:08]

Done.
