In SVN Section 6.11, with coreutils-7.1 these two commands don't appear
to be needed anymore:

cp -v src/Makefile.in{,.orig}
sed -e "/binPROGRAMS_INSTALL=/s:./ginstall:install:" \
src/Makefile.in.orig > src/Makefile.in

A diff of Makefile.in / Makefile.in.orig after the sed reveals no
changes have been made.

>From the coreutils Changelog:

2008-07-04  Jim Meyering  <meyering at redhat.com>

install with just-built ./ginstall only when not cross-compiling
* src/Makefile.am (install-exec-am): ...otherwise, use the default
value, $(INSTALL_PROGRAM).  Reported by Brian Silverman.
