Nothing urgent. I am building through a local checkout and have just
switched to that. Easy enough. I need to run it through Phantom to
make sure I link to a version that actually works. I've had that
broken in the past, so am not risking it any more.

Anyway, just wanted to ask in case there was a simple fix (such as -
"you've not set this variable correctly" or so).

Thanks,
