Re: Variable names of package hierarchies

The source file (lisp/packages.el) is explicitly labelled "internal" (in the keywords) and the commentary discusses how it has to work in a bare temacs. Mike Sperber would be definitive on this, but I would say that stuff is very internal, and any code that relies on interfaces in that file is taking a risk.

Maybe we need to "export" those interfaces.
