make is needed to compile the support binaries.
The README was written in preparation for being installed as the fedora
package, and is already used for that purpose at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551411

It already supports DESTDIR but olpc-os-builder itself doesnt support
being run in installed mode in anything other than /usr
(this could be fixed, but its probably not worth it. lets just focus on
the Fedora efforts...)
