Yeah, everything look great until I found these hacks.

No it wouldn't, it would mean that when you do a build it puts script
call run-insight.sh in the build directory, instead of typing ./gdb
you type ./run-insight.sh.  All the script is doing is settting
the correct *_LIBRARY before running gdb.

You wouldn't have to do an install just to run insight from the build
directory.  I'm trying to avoid disturbing people's normal development
style.
