We have a packaging system & a special system for building programs that 
aren't usually native to Syllable.? I know that it's not important generally 
where this file goes.? However, what you may not know is that were we put 
things within our filesystem isn't totally solid yet.? So, while it's not 
important from a lemon perspective, it is important from a Syllable perspective.

Where this file is is of no consequence.  It does not matter where it
goes, and many OSes put it in different places.  If /usr/share/lemon/
is an acceptable place for you to put it, then that's fine.  It's only
needed when building, anyway.

Does Syllable have a packaging system?  If so, you may want to package
Lemon to make it easier for others to reproduce your work towards
building NetSurf.
