It is a wiki, you may fix it instead of whining :-)

You mean it does not work _for you_ not that it does not work. Do you 
think somebody deliberately put there instructions that do not work for 
him? Do you think the HOWTO author should care for the very specific 
system you chosed to install on your computer if he uses another?

Yes but maybe you should take the warning in the HOWTO about gcc version 
  seriously :-)

As for the compilation by hand (and also outside of scratchbox) yes it 
would be nice to have it in the HOWTO. I find it easier too.
