Okay, I've done a whole bunch of Linux installs under various conditions,
and I've found that the problem arises if and only if the installation is
going to replace the EXTANT_CHICKEN it was configured to use. If you keep
a private copy of chicken-static around and always use that, you never
have a problem with rebuilding on install. What's more, when building
from a tarball, where EXTANT_CHICKEN is irrelevant, there is no problem.
Does *that* suggest anything to anyone?
