 I don't understand how it can be that on anyone's machine at all. I've
 had several friends attempt this just in case I was on crack, all
 experienced the same thing.
 
 You need to create patches for some of the psi Makefiles. Check out
 src/Makefile especially, that seems to be the main culprit. All kinds of
 garbage is hardcoded there. If you're lukcy all you need to do is add a
 bunch of arguments to the configure script.

 Well, it would be if the rest of the Makefiles play along. I suggest
 playing with the configure arguments, that should do it from what I can
 tell. I'd be rather surprised if it didn't, the psi folks seem quite
 competent.
