 That doesn't work - it just changes the original "rm" to "/bin/rm" which
 then fails (as per my other email).
 
 Can we assume that we can use "rm -f" (or "${RM} -f")?  It looks
 like the problem is that we are trying to remove ._* files from the
 distribution, but one of those is mode 444 so it fails.
 
 Note that running "make install" as root works - the "rm" as root
 doesn't care about the permissions on the file.  I using unpriv'd pkgsrc
 builds.
 
 Cheers,
 Simon.
