lisp/Makefile.in has a conditional for NATIVE_FULL_AOT which enables
native compilation of all elisp files. Presumably distros would want to
define this when packaging Emacs.

AFAICS this variable is not documented. I wonder if it could be made a
configure option, so a) it would be discoverable and b) its value would
be recorded in system-configuration-options.

Not sure if --with-native-full-aot would be the best possible name.

I don't think that there is any change of concept here. This was one of the
original ways to build the eln files and I have been using it for over a year.

I understand the concern, but wouldn't it be better to get the functionality
out so that we can get more eyeballs/systems using it to see if there are
any issues?

We had this conversation almost exactly a year ago as well.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2020-08/msg01036.html
The eln files are architecture specific and should not be stored along
with the elc files (amusingly I would love to be able to store all my elc
files in a single location ...). Quite a bit of though and testing have gone
in to make sure that system wide full AOT compilation works and is
distro and packaging friendly.

More on this later. Best!
Tom
