    Ok, putting Makefile.common aside for a while, what's everybody's
    position on these two questions (simple yes/no will do):

    * should pear-compatible packages that don't come from pear.php.net
      get installed under ${PEARDIR}?

    * should pear-compatible packages that don't come from pear.php.net
      get "PKGNAMEPREFIX=pear-"?

    Then I wonder why we bother with installing package.xml files.
