-: So I think using
-: `ginstall' is better even without this bug.  (Why do you think all
-: Makefile's in ports of GNU utilities use ginstall? ;-)

OK, but another question arises.  I recently installed GNU fileutils
4.0 on my box at work; there it appears that an executable `ginstall'
is built, which is then installed as `install' to $(prefix)/bin.  There
is no `ginstall', not even as a symlink, in $(prefix)/bin.  This is why
my makefiles (which *did* use `ginstall') complained.
