Steve, if the thought behind your question was whether we’d be criticized for using modern tools I think it’s unlikely as it’s always accepted they were very sophisticated carpenters, on the basis of the carpentry techniques used on the lintels.
I have a flint drill bit that I found on the route of the stones outside Avebury, that’s perfectly efficient and leaves holes indistinguishable from a Black and Decker. I’ll let Gordon have it if he wants, and he can mount it on a handle and get a photo-opportunity using it on the day.
