I agree. Suckless code quality has decayed.

For example, the initial purpose of stest was to list the executable
files in a directory. Now, well, see for yourself: find | stest -x -f

I do not understand config.def.h. I use git to track my changes. I'm
not sure when config.def.h crept into all the repos... redhat probably
had something to do with it
