Hmm, "make installonly" does the job for you.

That's caused by the non-existend "ipv6calc" program which is required
by test_ipv6calcweb.sh

And ooops, this points me to a problem in the CGI at all:
# Pseudo random selected
./test_ipv6calcweb.sh 2001:200:1:ea::1
Content-type: text/html

 Support for option '--db-ip2location-ipv4 <IP2Location IPv4 database
file>' not compiled in, IP2Location support disabled
 Support for option '--db-ip2location-ipv6 <IP2Location IPv6 database
file>' not compiled in, IP2Location support disabled
 Support for option '--db-geoip <GeoIP database file>' not compiled in,
GeoIP support disabled
<html>

This should not happen...
