"./configure" followed by "make" - works fine. I haven't tried make install,
but why would I want to? As is, I can move the binary around.

You can't just move the binary around, or else you'll get a message like
this:

./httrack: error: /Users/whoeveriam/.libs/httrack does not exist
This script is just a wrapper for httrack.
See the libtool documentation for more information.
 
Or at least that's what I got.
