What do you mean by that? share on Unix is _NOT_ a subdir of
bin/. The default structure is always:
somewhere/bin
somewhere/share
somewhere/share/scid
somewhere/lib
etc.
Where the scid executable is somewhere/bin/scid. Scid must
not search in somewhere/bin/share/... for some shared
files.

This is how it should look like. Hence, I'm confused by your
former statement. Still, /usr/local should be replacable
by e.g. /opt/chess or whatever. Is this still the case? Ie.
will /opt/chess/bin/scid find /opt/chess/share/scid? This is
crucial on Unix.
