Upon review, the upgrade wiki page was a little vague/misleading (e.g. the difference between the "SYMLINK=1" install option versus the "symlinks" make target), so your struggles with the instructions are understood and hopefully my recent edits have made them a little clearer for the next upgrading SyncOp. :-)
