I haven't understood very well your question, anyway there's already a
package manager for emacs, called ELPA, http://tromey.com/elpa/install.html

A part from this I've found the best configuration/modularization work done
in the emacs-starter-kit packages
http://github.com/technomancy/emacs-starter-kit (it uses ELPA extensively).

Hope it can help a bit...
