I'm not sure what I should do for "make" or "make install" because these
are R6RS libraries that are possibly compiled for different
implementations, possibly not, and need to go in some
implementation-specific search folder. Hopefully a tarball of
source-code is all packagers need and they can turn it into whatever
they want.
