Mandy, that's an interesting idea. arguments.cpp is getting cluttered with conditionals and maybe that's a way to fix that. The problem with this solution is that the absence of this flag needs to be associated with INCLUDE_MANAGEMENT=0, not with the MinimalVM. Otherwise we'd just have #ifdef MINIMALVM all over the source rather than the more selective #if INCLUDE_XXX. Thus instead of non_minimal_product, what you need is include_management_product, or something like that. And you would need this for each INCLUDE_XXX flag that has an effect on available command line options. Whether or not that is a good idea depends on how many options and how many INCLUDE_XXX flags we are talking about.
