thanks, much appreciated.

that's odd. The variable $SCRIPTS_ROOTDIR is still there but it's set in
line 16-20. I didn't change these lines, I just removed the ability to
override it with some other value from the command line.
are you sure step 5 breaks?

I'm aiming for everyone to set up moses like so
[directory A]/scripts
[directory A]/bin
[directory B] = external bin directory
the external bin directory has giza/mgiza (and hopefully linguistic
programs over time).
when you update moses, just replace scripts/ and bin/ . The external bin
directory can stay constant
