Users can change the tools that they use. Say my sysadmin has installed

use them by default by changing my path, but know that quilt relies on
them... I can 'export DATE=/opt/gnu/bin/date', and then I notice that
/opt/gnu/bin/getopt isn't a new enough version, so I build the latest in
my home directory and 'export GETOPT=$HOME/bin/getopt'.
Then you'd have to set up your environment specifically for quilt. A weird
idea.
Setting them in .quiltrc could be supported. That would be a way to use
specific versions just for quilt.
If set in the global environment, the names should probably be
quilt-specific (e.g., QUILT_UTIL_GETOPT).
