Dear diary, on Mon, Jul 03, 2006 at 02:02:30AM CEST, I got a letter
where Junio C Hamano [off-list ref] said that...

Petr Baudis [off-list ref] writes:

so this is my attempt to summarize it:

Ah, our message crossed -- thanks for summarizing it.  I do not
particularly like any of the solution so far, but maybe the
patch I just sent out to "do the normal thing unless we are
running tests" might be the right thing to do.

Yes, I roughly agree. I have some gripes, patches will follow.

  (ii) My proposed second solution was to add an autogenerated line to
the Git's perl scripts saying something like:

	use lib ('instlibdir', 'srclibdir');

This fulfills all (D1), (D2) and (D3)

If you have srclibdir after instlibdir, aren't you breaking D2?

*Sigh*

Why can't I get it right for once? ;-)

And I do not think swapping them is right either.  It would
fullfil D1/D2/D3 but I think it has one bad side effect.

Yes, I agree with your reservations.
