Hmmm...sort of a new public mental health issue, huh? We could call it
FAQophobia or something equally pithy! Start a movement to defend the rights
of FAQ-literacy-challenged minority group, and nominate ourselves its founding
members. <g>

This appears to be an excellent tactic; it's too bad that in typical
bull-in-china-shop fashion I just barged into the compile using the default
/usr/local prefix! When will I learn patience? <g> Oh well, I'll just do it
over as I've done over so many other things!
Thanks!
