Someone could make an installer for Ikarus that tries to be smart about what you tell it and extracts libraries and installs copies according to Ikarus's conventions. But because this interferes with working with the

I agree here.  I would rather force implementors to adopt a single
convention rather than force users to replicate libraries all over
creation.  This is a great topic for a much needed SRFI.
