Brilliant hack of the day: Wrapping an archive into a shell-script to make it self-extracting . Simply concat the tar-gzipped archive to the following script:

#!/bin/sh
SKIP=`awk '/^__ARCHIVE__/ {print NR + 1; exit 0;}' $0`
tail +$SKIP $0 | tar xz
exit 0
__ARCHIVE__

Lovely! I'm deeply in awe. Maybe there'll soon be a single-click Vanilla installer ...
