Exactly that. I inspected the Makefile and discovered that it still generated
/usr/local/* directories, so I tried it again with a trailing slash as described
in the build instructions, same result. I've grepped through looking for
occurences of 'local' to see what's happening and found nothing relevant.
I need to do some work on exactly how and where the PATH gets set for jobs run
by init, but did I mention there's a lot else going on? I'm doing my best but it
will take me a while. Meanwhile my schedules turn into a pumpkin in five days so
I have an incentive to solve this one.
