There is one problem IMO; the script (with the patch) won't allow displaying
help unless there is a matching "generic-build.{tar,tar.bz,tar.gz}" (or some
such, you get the picture I hope) file in the same dir.

Igor: I hacked around some, and ended up short of my intentions; in hope it
"helps" some I've *EDITED down* my changes to the attached patch.

 Feel free to do with it whatever you like. (Non copyrighted material, cgf
