 I'm not talking about checking out the AddOn, I'm talking about compiling
 it. You suggest:


 {{{
 make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/grass_source_tree/
 }}}

 which indicates that I need the source tree for compilation...

 I am looking for a way to get the equivalent of

 {{{
 make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/lib/grass
 }}}

 but working around the bug reported here...

 This is not for me, but for my students who would like to install some
 addons, and so I would like to know if there is any way for them to do so
 currently, using the grass-dev package, or whether this bug makes this
 impossible.
