I meant the platforms/unix one, which ends up on the top-level in the tarball.

Yes, but that was not executed yet if you just untar and run make.

Well I'm not sure yet how the prefix would be passed ... 

Btw, can you wrap this:

	set | fgrep SQUEAK_
	set -x

in an if [ "0$SQUEAK_DEBUG" -gt "0" ] ?

If you can't persuade the build script to look in the right place, you could maybe patch a Makefile into the platforms dir that calls cmake on its behalf -- something similar to platforms/unix/Makefile (the latest version in the repo).
