It does help, that's the whole point. But you will have to rebase all
the in-processing DLL together, as the database will only have
information on the installed DLL. So if you build in stages, you'll
need to do something like incremental autorebase does and collect all
DLL into some file that you can then feed to
rebase -sOT dlls_to_rebase
That is slightly less convenient than using the database in persistent
mode, but it is much less of a headache when you want to throw things
away and start over since you don't need to worry about cruft in the
database file.
