Ok. That looks reasonable. I'll apply the patch.

Hrm. You mean if you cd into the tag you want to to build, you cannot
build a specific tag?

Which build-scripts? trunk/ or something else? The Makefile has to point

match my build. The exception is to modify them as the INSTALL document
suggests...

I'll update trunk/ and you should try to build from trunk again. Good luck!
