The new 2.6-17sarge1 version has $XMCD_LIBDIR set to
'/build/buildd/xmcd-2.6/debian/xmcd/usr/share/xmcd' instead.  The
version in testing/unstable (2.6-17.1) has
'/home/luk/tmp/xmcd-2.6/debian/xmcd/usr/share/xmcd'.  Fascinating as
this peek into the filesystem layouts of the development machines
may be, on the whole I would still prefer not to have a broken
shellscript hidden on my $PATH.
