This may have advantages. It also has disadvantages. It is much more
difficult to set up than Emacs's simplicity. For example, during
installation, the user must edit the make file to say where the packages
are going to live. For developers, the source and installed versions of
the packages are rigidly separated, making testing more awkward.
