   I built this snapshot successfully (as far as I can tell) on 
   Linux and Solaris. I just wonder whether there is a way provided 
   to install into a specified directory. I simply made distribution 
   tarballs now and unpacked them in the desired location.

Being able to unpack and build in a 'desired location' is very nice.
I can then just shift a single symlink to move between different
versions and test cases.  It takes a few symlinks to put it all
together so that binaries are in executable paths etc, but a run-once
shell script takes care of most of the details.
