   You can build in a directory different from the source directory by
   changing to the build directory and invoking configure thus:
   
   $srcdir/configure
   
   where $srcdir is the source directory (Note that we tested this only
   for installation; i.e., if you want to hack the Gforth sources, you
   should probably build in the source directory).
