Special Update/Build Instructions

• The makefiles do use GNU extensions. This causes build failures on systems like FreeBSD where GNU's make is usually called gmake. A workaround is to create a symlink from gmake to make in ~/bin and to add that directory to $PATH before the directory that contains the BSD make
