That's right.  The `configurePhase' of the package at
https://svn.nixos.org/repos/nix/nixpkgs/trunk/pkgs/applications/editors/emacs-modes/jdee/default.nix
does exactly this.

Hmm, possibly.  I agree there should be default values when
`build.properties' doesn't specify anything.

The installed CEDET is flat (all elisp files in a single directory),
whereas the CEDET sourec has sub-directories for `common', `eieio', etc.

I would expect non-Windows users to always use an installed CEDET.  What
do you think?

IIRC, the `avl-tree' elisp module is only available in the forthcoming
Emacs 23, which could be an issue.

Thanks,
