Oh, I was running as root.  I expected root is necessary to establish
the global bits.

I see now I think DILLO_LIBDIR becomes /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ with the
debian build options whereas the code in dillo-install-hyphenation only
knows /lib.

But actually I haven't persuaded the hyphenation do anything yet, so
perhaps it's premature to worry about the dir in the script :-).

~/.dillo could be a possibility in addition to the global places.

Believe it's TeX, per texlive-base under
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/generic/hyph-utf8/patterns/txt.
Though the files there have an extra .txt extension over what seems to
be at CTAN.  I filed a bug upstream suggesting it could look in a TeX
dir for files in addition to its /usr/lib/dillo downloaded bits.
