Well, no I'm not ... :)

If you grab the version from HEAD (after CVS syncs up in a few
minutes, if it hasn't already) then you'll have a version that just
needs the path to the IDL.  It defaults to /openils/conf/fm_IDL.xml,
as that's the default installation location using the default PREFIX
during `make config`.

I tested it on the Gutenberg records and all seems well.
