The way we do hive INFs is very far from ideal right now. I propose to create a base INF that is used to construct each hive and turning the hivexxx_arch.inf into an additional section like livecd.inf is now. This way every architecture inherits a base configuration and turning on/off services or changing certain settings can be done in the arch-specific inf. This would eliminate having to do these merge backs and also prevent tons of breakages and lost time in the future from having to merge the same change 3+ times.
