Separately, it's somewhat confusing that we include errcodes.h etc in

works, even without perl, because copying the file doesn't require perl, it's
just generating it...
The "copying" is actually a symlink, right? I don't think we want to ship
symlinks in the tarball?
Fair point - still seems we should just create the files in the right
directory instead of doing it in the wrong place and then creating symlinks to
make them accessible...
Right. I think the reason this was set up this way is that with make it
is generally dubious to create target files outside of the current
directory.
