How to build GNU shellutils 2.0/iX.1

The source code is packaged as a diff against the original shellutils 2.0 sources.
Please download shellutils-2.0.tar.gz from one of the www.gnu.org mirror sites.
Instructions below assume a GNU.ORG logon, because this is my porting setup.

 :hello manager.sys

 :newacct org,mgr
 :purgeuser mgr.org
 :purgegroup pub.org
 :altacct org; cap=+ph

 :newgroup gnu.org; access=(r,x:any; w,a,l,s:gl)
 :newuser gnu.org; pass=whatever; home=gnu
 :altuser gnu.org; cap=+ph,gl

 :hello gnu.org

 :xeq /bin/sh -L

 shell/iX> mkdir build; cd build
 shell/iX> gzip -dc /tmp/shellutils-2.0.tar.gz | tar xvopf -
 shell/iX> cd shellutils-2.0
 shell/iX> tar xvzopf /tmp/shellutils-20-ix1-delta.tar.Z
 shell/iX> tar xvzopf /tmp/shellutils-20-ix1-c89.tar.Z
 shell/iX> mpe/patch.sh
 shell/iX> mpe/build.sh

You are now ready to use the software in /ORG/GNU/opt/shellutils/v20 (bin, info, ...)
It might be useful to create a symbolic link like /usr/local/shellutils to point there.

Have fun using GNU shellutils 2.0/iX, but keep in mind: *use at your own risk*
