Gack -- it still doesn't apply, apparently INSTALL has changed since
then.

I have a better idea. Just commit the change, and it can be reviewed
in place. It's not like INSTALL can break the build or anything. If
for some reason there's a problem (seems unlikely), it's easy enough
to revert the change until you get a chance to redo it.
