Darned if I didn't suggest this last week and was told that this very
thing had been implemented the day after I downloaded the CTM base delta!
Check out the src-2.2-CTM-README file in the CTM directory.  The new one.
It explains how to start with CTM from the src distribution.

I only hope they keep this up!
