i just found out that it might be fine on some systems - deppending what
is the defualt mode that 'install' gives ...

so on my system ( gentoo linux ) it sets exec by default

i could't find out any way of changing this defult apart from during
compilation of binutils perhaps ..

but is is probably better to get this fixed, i think

there is the same problem with some Makefiles of externals and
abstractions in CVS @sf.net
