inst can be used as a regular user to do local installations
too with the -r (target) flag, e.g.,

inst -r /usr/people/cwant/upyoursboss

will install everything in that subdirectory
(creating tmp, usr, var subdirectories as needed).

For dynamic lib resolution, the user would want
to do something like this:

setenv LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH /usr/people/cwant/upyoursboss/usr/freeware/lib32
