Installing a copy of everything in lib/ was actually a convenience for 
developers wanting to test newly built stuff without having to 'make 
install'.  Not really old build system cruft.

I use this all the time.  I'd be OK with removing it and adjusting to 
more standard practices, but I wanted to make sure everyone was aware it 
was happening.
