How about this patch? It changes find-image to look for an image file
in etc/images first, then in etc/, then in the load-path. The last
two are for backward compatibility, the idea being that images should
go into etc/images by default.
For example, if foobar.el needs an image that is installed into
etc/images/foobar/foo.xpm, it calls
(defimage foo-image ((:type xpm :file "foobar/foo.xpm" ....)))
