Hmm.  I did not see that.

     sed -i 's/-m build/& --no-isolation/' Makefile.in &&

     ./configure --prefix=/usr &&
     make $BFLAGS              &&

     sed -e '/import imp/d'                \
         -e 's/^ndiff = .*$/import ndiff/' \
         -i ndiff/ndifftest.py

     # Tests need to be in a gui
     echo "BLFS Start CHECKS"  &&
     (sudo make check || true) &&

     echo "BLFS Start INSTALL"  &&
#    DESTDIR install is not honored for all operations
#    make DESTDIR=$DEST -n install &&
     $SUDO make install
      :

I can attach the build log if desired.
