What would be ood would be to allow "run in place" as is done for X11.
E.g. I basically *never* do "make install", I always just do "make" and
then run src/emacs.  Some of the reason why this is good is that C-h
f and C-h v allow you to jump to the checked out source code from which
you built the code, rather than some copy of it.
