The problem is that these machines are the only ones of their type. Or
I would do what you suggest...

could use on
the one or two systems where I cannot install all the

compile a Hobbit client binary. Binary Perl

client than no
client.
You should be able to statically compile the client on another
machine that is the same OS, and then copy it to the target machine.
Perhaps Henrik could add a --static option to the configure so that you
wouldn't have to hack the Makefile to do it..
