Sure, you can actually put it anywhere you like. The reason why these

Thanks again, this is helpful.

Also, I noticed just before re-installing that my bash prompt, which had
always been begun with "Macintosh:" now begins with "Macintosh-2:".
Does this have something to do with MP's changes to /Library/Tcl?
(Before today, I had always installed MP with the binary packages.)

Tcl shouldn't affect your shell at all. Could be a Bonjour thing?

Maybe, but I dunno... the timing and uniqueness of it make me suspect it has something to do with installing MP from source... but I'm not going to worry about it. Googling "Macintosh-2" doesn't reveal any discussion of the subject, but it does show that other people have the same thing in their prompt, and they don't seem worried. :-)
