Oh yes.  Sigh.  What needs to happen is that in debian/rules
when I copy the Makefile to the build dir, I need to run 
sed to ensure that 'USE_SYSTEM_PWD_GRP = true', which should
fix it.  I plan on cutting the release of 0.51 today, and this
will need to be fixed before the release.

I think we should do this for _all_ the debian packages.
