Thank you Bhaskar for the testing details! The will definetely be useful to provide at least a minimal test of having things built/installed correctly. My family keeps me heavily occupied this weekend so I will have a chance to look at it with a clear head only early next week. But regarding:

I still hope that we could find the relevant code where the filename gets embedded so we could either patch it simply to look for the original .m in the same directory where the .o/.so is, or just to provide compile time argument (e.g. via env variable) to allow "install" into a location with a predefined prefix (i.e. temporary build top directory) which would not be placed into the generated .o file, thus allowing to install the binary into the location without that prefix. Any hints would be more than welcome where to dig in the right direction ;-) -- Yaroslav O.
