Sure you can ;)

But that breakage concerns only the part where "make binkit" tries to
modify package-index.  The tarball is created with "make binkit" and all
files I care about are installed with "make install" anyway, so I've
just happily ignored that error during the few times I've actually
created a binkit out of the package (usually I just "make install" it).

Anyway, this is probably easy enough to fix if people think it's worth
fixing for the unsupported area; for example the attached patch seems to
do the trick.  What do you think?
