This reminds me: one of the bugs that ought to be fixed before the next
release is the following in uip/Makefile.in:
$(LN) $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/install-mh $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)/install-mh
This fails for AFS file systems as well as for anyone that happens to
use a different filesystem for the libdir and bindir. It is Debian bug
#238456 and also appears on Savannah.
The obvious fix is to use a soft link but can we just remove the link?
Is install-mh needed in $(libdir)? The Debian patch comments the line
out. I thought that the link was needed because commands automatically
run install-mh if .mh_profile doesn't exist but it seems that I'm wrong
there and it just prompts the user instead.
