You'd have thought so, but well, the nessus-core build was a gigantic hack 
:).  It basically bypassed make install and started doing its own thing. 
Which is fine, but I'd rather spend the time to make make install work in 
a satisfactory manner - which is what I have been doing.

I agree, I've been making builds of the libs available on mentors, but 
until recently jfs hadn't come back with any feedback.  I've updated them 
based on his feedback so we'll see what he and Neil say.
