Maybe related.. I recall having seen some install error like this. Seems
like the /libexec/runsystem symlink is not set. Anyone has an idea on what
happened?

This can be easily fixed but there are more errors. You won't get crosshurd

So you should use the tarball instead. (and wait for someone to comment on the
runsystem link..)
