 We've gone to great pains to make XEmacs binaries rather

 of the layout into which it is installed.  Our tarball layout allows
 people to put the stuff pretty much wherever they want.  It allows
 the same install documentation to be shared among architectures.
 Therefore, it is desirable to have all binary kits in the same
 general format.  Having native packages as an add-on is certainly a
 good thing, but not in the absence of a regular binary kit. 
I whole-heartedly agree.
