That's right. This script is outdated; it hasn't changed in years and isn't 
used in current builds, so I'm not even sure if it still works. The entire 
build system is based on GNU Makefile or CMake and doesn’t require any 
separate scripts. The script in question clearly hasn’t been updated in 
decades and was migrated to GitHub from the old SourceForge repository.
