Oh, damn, indeed. Although "make install" failed with an error with the generic linux binary,  it did install the (non-working) binaries in /usr/local/bin, so the system didn't look in /usr/bin, where the working thing is.

So for the next few months I will remember to check whether make left anything behind if it dies with an error...
