Right, so I think we need a special Makefile target to produce those
compiled trampolines (something like "make trampolines"), and that
target should be only used manually when building a binary
distribution, not when building the release tarball for use on the
same machine where it is built.

Andrea, could you please come up with a patch for that?  Thanks.
