I might add that I'm getting close. I've a patch that sets all of the makefiles to allow use of

        BUILDDIR
and/or

        SBASEDIR
which default to

	BUILDDIR=
	SBASEDIR=$(BUILDDIR)/usr/local 

I'll have to run down loads of probs yet I'm sure, but I'm close to getting everything installed relative to a buildroot rather than /.

I just know there will be a few compiled in paths to sort out and I'm already suspicious of the USRSBINDIR setting in MCONFIG but haven't checked what it is doing yet.
