One can hardly call it 'my script'. It's basically a copy and paste of the 
instructions in the book with some echo's to let the user know where in the 
process the script got to and the unpacking instructions implied by the book 
and the cleanup implied by the book. The only real addition by me is some && so 
that the script will bomb out if anything fails.

I have run it several times and it gets to completion as long as the sources 
directory is as expected with no major errors except for the Texinfo warnings.

I can only conclude that the book is either

a) wrong
b) a bit of an online joke to see how many times people will try this before 
they just give up
c) the book isn't an online joke and some peculiarity about my host system 
wasn't forseen by the book which works well for others

If nobody is going to test the script I put up. I guess I'll never know which 
of the above is the problem.
