emacs-minimal is the default-emacs in the emacs-build-system.
Currently, we disable native-compilation of loaded elisp because we want
to use the ahead-of-time native compilation that occurs when building a
package.  However, if we don't build our packages with an emacs that
supports native compilation, then we are effectively disabling the
native compliation feature for all packages.
