Re: building unix installer outside normal tree

There's a seperate patch for the windows build.pl.  That's patch v1.0.  
the cmdline arg is '-objdir [path]'.  if you pass '-h' it should show up 
the options is can take.

The patch to the linux deliver.pl looks like it was already checked in, 
thus -o$objdir seems to work for you.
