generally a blown build just sits there with a build log file so you

packaged up). It builds in the same location it is going to run from,
so you should be good.
Yes, I can continue with make (in the ext directory), but after that
I won't
have an installed gem. That's what I need for dependencies, maybe for
installed binaries etc.
no, you'll have an installed gem at that point. It is building IN the
install location, so once it is built, it's good to go.
I need to patch/rebuild/repackage the original gem somehow.
