Grr. I thought that problem was fixed long, long ago. Hmmm. [dig, dig] 
Sadly, "it works for me" (at least in the capacity I tested it with). :-(

Which directories? All of the ones installed with insight or just 
$INSTALLDIR/share/insight1.0? Can you run any of the other installed 
binaries (before changing permissions) like gdb, tclsh, etc? Or do those 
also not work?

I wonder if it is an "installer" issue. What is the value of 
ac_cv_path_install in config.cache?

I still don't understand why this happened to you. I build and install 
insight like this *every* week when I make the snapshot.

Well, at least you're running, I guess. I'd still like to know why this 
happened, though.
