Why only "third-world dirt-hut coders"?
I am a computer scientist in Iceland and the demand for good computer scientists here is really low. I would definately consider moving elsewhere to be able to work at the level I want to (i.e. not just administering some small firm website).
Yeah, I know this has nothing to do with the point you're making, but it's certainly something to consider. There are other countries than from the third-world that have a surplus of capable IT professionals.
