Thanks Sir Michal

Please feel free to check out my broken grammar and change
what you see fit.

BTW: The old system was sensitive to absolute paths so if
I compile on local machine say at:
	/home/boaz/dev/lin/
but then go to a network station and do "make install" in:
	/mnt/boaz/home/boaz/dev/lin/

The build would attempt to rebuild everything what I do
is cd /net/boaz/home/boaz/dev on local and remote so the
make just works. Your patch actually fixed that ;-)

Thanks
Boaz
