* makeSourceTarball -> sourceTarball.

* Added a function binaryTarball to do a DESTDIR build into
  /usr/local.  Useful for making statically linked binaries.  However,
  it may be better to do this in a VM (since if you do it in a Nix
  build environment, you can still end up with a lot of Nix
  dependencies in your binaries, even if you do static linking).
