Because it is the _source_ directory. I am doing edits, changes, half-assed things. The directory is in a _working_ state every few weeks at best, and only at _that_ point of time could it make sense to run "make install" or alternatively run from the source directory (but the source directory also happens to be scattered among several places, and it also contains .el-files not intended for installation, like files used for creating autoload files and similar). In the mean time, I still need to edit LaTeX files. I can't have broken copies of AUCTeX in my load-path for that. But _when_ I follow AUCTeX functions' hyperref docs, I want to get them in the source, even if they may be off a few lines (like it happens with using the C source code hyperlinks). -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
