Yeah :/ Though with Ricardo's caveats that on an x86-64 machine it's
more like 2 or 3 hours. This is "fixed" in the tarballs because the
person who generates the tarballs makes sure to prebuild a set of
compiled scheme files for common architectures, and those get picked up
by the build. Otherwise yeah, slow, sorry about that :(
