Same here, actually... I *hate* the way the latest sources ignore settings 
that you pass with autobuild, and insist on building ll_test even when you 
explicitely set LL_TEST:BOOL=FALSE, leading to a build fail due to the fact 
that the boost and googlemock libs have been built using the unknown gcc 
version that shall not be named in public(tm).

It would REALLY help if there was any kind of relationship between the actual 
build environment that LL uses and the build environment that has been 
(sparsely) documented on the wiki...

Even better: use centos, not debian, as the build environment, and provide a 
kickstart file that installs exactly what is needed.

Oh wait, the linux viewer is dead.
