yeah, I'll chalk it up to a learning experience... never try to short
cut the process - I've no idea what the difference was but the
first time I did it libiberty wasn't configured... I nuked it all and
started over... no problems this time.
Here then is the patch to accomplish the /usr/src change this thread
started. In testing this I did observe two things: one that some
packages have src/ in the front of the source paths... crypt is one,
such that you end up with /usr/src/src/crypt-1.0/*... I don't think
this is "normal" source packaging... but if it is a solution similar
to what is used for /usr/bin and /usr/lib can be put in. The second
item I noticed is that the source package sizes are not included in
the total download or install totals, making the progress bars finish
way too soon. I fixed those in this patch as well.

* install.cc: install sources into /usr/src instead
of /, also include the sizes of source tarballs
in total_bytes.
* download.cc: include sizes of source tarballs in
total_download_bytes.
