I think this might be a bit ambiguous. When I see "GIT_LIB", to me
it implies traditional libraries (ie a "libgit.a" kind of thing),
not the kind of "git executable plugin" directory.
So I'd suggest renaming "--lib" and "GIT_LIB" to be more of a
"--libexec" kind of flavor, if only to avoid that confusion.
Someone said libexec was moving out (of Linux, at least), so I thought 
I'd better avoid that. Perhaps GIT_LIBDIR?
More like "the rest of git executables".  GIT_EXEC_PATH, with
"git --exec-path" command, perhaps?
