Re: [PATCH] Build Carbon XEmacs with configure and make.

The major user-visible change is how --prefix is interpreted when

In this case --prefix will refer to the top of the application bundle,
rather than the parent directory of bindir and friends. It must also
end in '.app'. This means that the user continues to specify the top
of the installation tree via --prefix, even if the underlying
structure is different to a normal UNIX install.
Sounds reasonable to me.
Since you're working on the carbon port, would you look into tweaking
the package search path to something more OSX compliant ? I mean:
- ~/Library/Application Support/XEmacs/XEmacs Packages/
- /Library/Application Support/XEmacs/XEmacs Packages/ etc.
instead of:
- ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages/
- /usr/local/share/xemacs/xemacs-packages/ etc.
