If you:
1. sudo -s (to gain root privs)
2. cd
3. pwd

The output should reflect your user home not root’s home. For me it was 
/Users/worman. That is just the way sudo works. It doesn’t clobber your 
environment variables - at least not on OS X-nix. So, the build scripts should 
work with sudo. They definitely changed at some point because I have always 
built wonder this way and the BUILD.txt also instructs building this way. My 
wolips.properties and build.properties have not changed in a long time so I 
don’t think it is that.
