Yes, the Makefile needs to be fixed.  That is not in dispute.  If you
look at my patch to the specfile you will see that I'm just defining
SBINDIR so when the broken makefile does its stuff we do it all in the
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT, not in /

I'm just asking that a person who understands the 'parallel make' issue
prompting the change fix the Makefile, becouse I can't see why the
change was made in the first place.

This tarball is exactly that.  One better it is the released tarball not
the retared version we normally do.  (I prefer it that way)
