Yeah, although that was some time ago and whilst looking at it again  
the other day I realise I have no idea what I was really doing. Apart  
from a few code tweaks like the glob thing I think it was pretty  
straightforward to compile but getting the modules installed gave me  
a headache. Is there a PLT env var for adding collects without having  
to install them into the PLT/lib/collects path? That would make life  
easier.

On the subject of shared libraries I noticed that some mac app  
bundles have shared libraries included in the bundle itself. Google  
earth for instance has a heap under Contents/MacOS - maybe bundling  
shared libraries and setting the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH via Info.plist is  
an option? I could be talking gibberish though...
