Andrew de Andrade commented on THRIFT-2959:
-------------------------------------------

Another possible explanation is the the makefile execution of npm install uses 
the `--no-bin-links` arg (but I can't think of any reason why that flag would 
be set except in conjunction with the --global/-g flag (i.e. I can see why 
someone, for security or naming conflict reasons with another binary, might 
want a library available globally, but not want that library to put an 
executable accessible via $PATH.)

automake and autoconf are pretty new to me, so I'll see how far I can get in my 
sleuthing. Truth is that I found the entire `make check` experience wholly 
overwhelming since there is so much noise on stdout even for passing tests. 
(generally I only want to see additional info when things fail or when I set 
logging levels high).
