I'm not quite sure it is a 'gem'...

Well, PLUGINS just defines if the server should be compiled with or without 
plugin support. The idea behind it was to still allow building the server if 
something went wrong with the plugin-related code.

Since it seems that no big problems have been found with it for quite a long 
time, it can probably now be safely removed (with the default value of 'on' of 
course).

Note that the code activated by PLUGINS contains nothing about Python - the 
server PLUGINS stuff only provides support for the external plugin libraries 
(CFPython being one of those libraries).

If a problem arise with a specific plugin preventing your server to run, just 
remove that plugin (the server can run without any plugin libraries, even if 
PLUGINS is 'on')
