I do it all the time.  Here's a script I use on Macs.  Put all the
prereqs .tar.gz files in a directory, the PREREQS-DIR, and then invoke
this script, giving the PREREQS-DIR and where you want it installed
(e.g. "/usr/local") as arguments.

I'll let you figure out exactly what .tar.gz (.tgz or .tar.bz2 will also
work) files you need -- read the script closely to make up that list.
