  Nahh, didn't help.  Bizarro.

  Oh, hang on.  "DESTDIR=" doesn't seem to work.  Just specifying
"prefix=/usr" turns out to do the trick.

  Bingo!  Thanks Brian.  That's exactly what the message was trying to tell
me.

  Ah, but I'm running with a setup based off a slightly stale internal mirror,
but then there's a few bits and pieces I've built from source... I'm not quite
sure what versions of a lot of things I've got installed a lot of the time!

  Oh and anyway maybe it was gdb/insight I needed to rebuild.  I really ought
to keep notes! :)

    cheers,
