[m-rev.] request for test cases: libdir_map in make.library_install.m

[Zoltan Somogyi]

This diff clarifies an aspect of make.library_install.m that
was pretty confusing. It started as implementing the second
approach outlined in my last email to the list, but the diff to
that file ended up being larger than the file itself.

The diff bootchecks, but that is not surprising, because a bootcheck
does not exercise its functionality. Before committing this diff or
even having it reviewed, I want to try out its functionality on a program
that has a small enough installed form to not be overwhelming (like mmc)
but is large and complex enough to detect problems if they exist.
I can't think of any program that I am sure fits the bill, since the samples,
extras, and the Mercury programs I have written myself for other purposes
consist of about a dozen modules at most, and may therefore be too small.
Does anyone have any ideas for a program I can use?

While a full review of this diff is premature, I would like if you guys
grepped the diff and the attached EXT file (which summarizes in what
directories make.library_install.m installs files with given extensions)
for XXXs, which mostly document things I find odd. Knowing that
someone knows the actual reason for the odd code, or that they also
find it odd, would  both be useful, though in different ways :-)

Zoltan.
