Is there any way to build pike-cvs _without_ working Pike installed?
Yes, copy the source tree from another computers compiled cvs version, *including the timestamps*. That way the generated source will already be considered generated. (I did this last week, and it works.)
And second question... Some time ago someone posted here a minimum set of of modules which are really necessary to install/run Pike, so the question is - is it possible to "strip" all unnecessary modules from the source tree so they won't be compiled at all? Will simply removal of modules from the source work?
Yes. You just need to rerun configure (maybe autoconf as well) in the case of src/*modules. (lib/modules doesn't need that.)

Hi,
Is there any way to build pike-cvs _without_ working Pike installed?
And second question...

Will simply removal of modules from the source work?
For those who wonder why - I just want to release an application (naturally, written in Pike), but I don't want to force users to install full version of Pike (they don't need it at all but to run my app, and I know exactly what I (don't) use).
