hand-roll: v. [from obs. mainstream slang `hand-rolled' in
opposition to `ready-made', referring to cigarettes] To perform a
normally automated software installation or configuration process
by hand; implies that the normal process failed due to bugs in the
configurator or was defeated by something exceptional in the local
environment. "The worst thing about being a gateway between four
different nets is having to hand-roll a new sendmail configuration
every time any of them upgrades."
