Each package provides a shell script which byte-comiles the package's
files. If a new emacsen is installed, it will call emacsen-install,
which in turns calls each of the already-installed extension packages'
install script.
Those scripts get a parameter saying which emacsen which is being
installed, so they can decide whether they work with that version or
not.
One has a similar emacs-remove script, which removes the byte-compiled
files, either when an emacsen is being uninstalled or the package
itself is being uninstalled.
