Almost certainly, "selfextractor.bin" depends on some other program
that can't be discovered automatically. You can discover this using
the strace program -- probably something like:
strace -o /tmp/selfextrator.out -etrace=exec -f selfextractor.bin
r.Run() isn't really any different with cvc cook or rMake -- it's just
that in the rMake case you don't have as much stuff installed (just
what is listed as required to build) and so that's almost always the
source of differences between cvc cook and rMake: rMake builds should
be repeatable, not just build on some system that happens to have the
right things installed.
