> well it depends on what you do with the _probe()s.  If you have multiple define_machine definitions built in, the generic probe will always succeed to match on the first machine probe_machine() tests, which may or may not be the machine it's currently running on.

Which is an argument for _NOT_ doing a generic probe !
