It is not clear from `configure --help' what's the default value to
--enable-locallisppath.
Is `PREFIX/share/emacs/22.0.92/site-lisp' also a default value to
--enable-locallisppath? If the answer is NO, is it supposed to be in
the load-path?
Anyway, if another set of load-path is specified in
--enable-locallisppath, the existence of
PREFIX/share/emacs/22.0.92/site-lisp and PREFIX/share/emacs/site-lisp
does nothing but confusing user.
