  # build Asterisk
  cd $TARGET_DIR/$ASTVERSION
  ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib64
  cd $TARGET_DIR/$ASTVERSION/menuselect
  make menuselect
  cd  $TARGET_DIR/$ASTVERSION
  make menuselect-tree
  
  ./menuselect/menuselect \
  
    #[snip menuselect parameters]
      
  # we want mp3's    
  ./contrib/scripts/get_mp3_source.sh
  
  make

(This is not intended to criticise Lenz)

All of this magic (specifically the bits before the menuselect) is
needed for a proper build?

* Why is an explicit libdir packameter needed? What break if it is not
  passed?
* Why is there a need to build menuselect manually? What about 'make
  menuselect'? Do we need a Makefile target to build menuselect but not
  run it?
