I've done some big changes to the source tree in the past couple days.  
Now the tree can be built without being root, this keeps it from 
accidentally destroying your OS setup.  The catch is that it uses sudo, 
so that has to be configured.
I use the newest RedHat on vmware-4 for my build and it works fine.  
Wether it will work on other distros is something i can't answer right 
now.  I guess the biggest factor is what version of gcc and binutils 
the distro has.
