Oh, this was done as root (I know, shame on me...)

This is by far the easiest GNUradio build I've yet seen (including having to 
track down the SDCC version that would easily compile).  Everything except 
SDCC that GNUradio requires is included already in either Fedora Core 5 or 
Fedora Extras 5 (including livna.org as a FE5 adjunct).

This means an RPM dist of GNUradio for FC5/FE5 would not be too hard, and 
might even be includable in FE5.

I should probably do a tarball build to check that, though.  Of course, the 
tarballs lag CVS, and once you're on the CVS slope it's hard to go 
back... ;-)
