Re: [PATCH]: mknetrel builds Guile #4: genscript


Hmm.  It's sort of sad when I make the effort to read the entire thread
but still miss the point anyway.

Why not just have mknetrel use a "mknetrel" file in the source directory
if it finds one?  I've been thinking about doing this for a while.

Then there is no need to decide on a location for the "extra" files.
They'll be bundled with the src, in the same directory.
