Well, programmers will depend on anything that is known,
more so if the standard defines it. (Like INT_MAX/Max_Int
is 2**31-1, you know...)

However, a configuration pragma for elaboration should be fine?
It says,
  "Take this way of walking the dependency graph"

Stating the way then prevents configuration from being an
implicit consequence of the LRM. It also adds a way of
testing different paths of elaboration.
