Basically, the install-sh hack would append to an existing list
file. If you run through the virtual install that creates the list
file more than once, then you'll end up with multiple copies of
files (EPM does filter this out.) Even worse, tho, is that you
might end up with a mix of new and old files in the list files,
which EPM won't catch...

Right now you build a single package from a single list file. There
is nothing preventing that package from containing multiple programs,
but you can't install them separately (i.e. no sub-package support,
at least not yet...)
