Warning people that their build tools are not sufficient would not hurt anyone! :)
    I'm in favor of adding a note to the CVS instructions. This
    issue does not affect end-users, so we don't need to aim at
    doing everything automatically.

I would guess that the problems I encountered would have been no trouble for a more experienced unix user - so I can see your point. However, I would still like to be able to provide budding developers (like myself) some help on these kinds of issues. Perhaps Brendan and/or I can add some additional functionality to the 'source, build and install' script that he is working on. It should be relatively simple to have it sniff through someone's system to ensure that they have all the right tools, etc... - Zak
