I think we need to figure out the full story for people using CVS or
distros.

I imagine doing something like:

1) From CVS:
  
    cvs checkout hugs98 libraries
    cd hugs98/src/unix
    ./configure --without-libs
    cd ..
    make install

   which would do a standard install (i.e., what you get at the moment)

    cvs checkout hugs98 libraries
    cd hugs98/src/unix
    ./configure --with-libs=../../../libraries
    cd ..
    make install

   which would run convert_libs and make install install_libraries[_ffi]

2) From official distro:

    cd hugs98/src/unix
    ./configure --without-libs
    cd ..
    make install

   which gives a standard install

    cvs checkout hugs98 libraries
    cd hugs98/src/unix
    ./configure --enable-newlibs
    cd ..
    make install

   which runs make install install_libraries[_ffi]
   (the distro would include converted libs)


Obviously, the official distro is the one to focus on but I'd like the
cvs story to be pleasant too.
