We decided to bump the requirement to 3.x, as we have seen a number of
`unexplained' core dumps (no stack) on Red Hat, all with a version of
gcc 2.95, so you may want to look out for that.  Please switch to 3.x
as soon as it is available.

That's a check for something else that goes astray.  All versions of
echo are ok :-)

Help2man runs midi2ly --help.  Midi2ly uses the compiled module
python/out/midi.so.  PYTHONPATH, set by make, helps find that modul.
You'll have to see what goes wrong there.

Hmm, that's not good.  You can download the fonts for released
versions, see INSTALL
