A new _installation_ step was introduced since the previous one would
not work more than a few times and left traces in the system when
uninstalling that would eventually lead to failure.

That would be an interesting feat.  Reminds me of the Ritchie(?) C
compiler Trojan scenario where a backdoor was transferred into
recompilations of the compiler that would compile a backdoor when the
login program was being compiled.  With no trail left in the sources,
just proliferating in the binaries and surviving complete bootstraps.
