So now I need to get more familiar with autotools to make some changes in configuring, a few changes in my build script, get the changes into git and I will be ready to do an official build. 

I haven’t gotten any other feedback from the other 30 something downloads, I guess that’s good news. 

If we want to do an official build before I finish the above, I can easily reproduce the hacked build. 

And by the way, there are bugs in the M1 tool chain so I am currently building on x86 (10.15) with the latest Xcode command line tools.
