Fair enough; uploaded -10 with that reverted.

Yes. The only reference to build path is in an explicit setting of
CFLAGS. It's not quite autotools, it uses autoconf but no automake; the
build system doesn't entirely clean up after itself, but I don't think
that's critical (the Makefile does get regenerated).

and pretty much all of them are just lying to themselves too.
