Status quo:

I've edited the local Makefile.am within src/ and the make 
process works fine. Most of the functionality has been rewritten,
albeit it should function equally. Things that _should_ work as
of now:

 1. parsing the --range parameter's arguments
 2. basic validation of ranges
 3. translating relative starting/ending points to absolute ones
 4. buffered input from stream and according output
 5. line numbering via cat's next_line_num()
