That's why I was asking what the patch achieves - it was not clear
at all what the objective is. Not supporting the build of an installer
is fine (although that probably wouldn't be difficult). However, if
the patch doesn't manage to make "configure;make" work, it's IMO
useless. Having "make install" work in some form would be desirable.
