It is still the patched version so I can run the RUNME.sh...
The /usr/local????
Do you mean: /var/local (a.k.a: partition #3 of 4).

The auto-reinstall code lives on /var/local (user persistent data).
If an Amazon update disturbed the usr's data (which is the usr's property) and you are located in the USA, then Amazon has just committed a felony.
Notify Homeland Security, I am pretty sure that is the agency that handles cyber crimes.
