I followed the "build from source" instructions on the downloads page, and had no trouble building 4.2
Granted, that is off-putting to prospective new users.
That said, there's really little to no benefit to compiling a program. It's mostly a waste of time, in my opinion, one that might have been useful when we were running original IBM pc's back in the previous century.
The only reason someone might have to compile a Eu program would be if they're planning to sell or distribute it to the public. And so far, that has never happened AFAIK.
