I see, that's why you wanted the conditional in there. It would need to
be documented in the build instructions.
Some experimentation with "find" suggests that the actual command length
will be under 12K, which is probably going to work on most modern
platforms, so maybe I'm worried over nothing. Let's put it in and see
what the buildfarm says ...
