See whether it still works and begin to look at what parts of your installer
could be removed due to that (no reconfigure when starting up).

Something that is important with this patch is to remove all the
automatically generated files in your build/lib directory. They are
not supposed to come back.

BTW, did you see the small patch about locale detection? Could you try
it out?
