One way to make the whole deployment really portable could also be to pass from plain Makefile to the autoconf beast. This would also be good to detect the Emacs version and existing external libraries which maybe needed. A few other extensions already do and I think it would decrease greatly the amount of code needed (even if it would increase the "hidden complexity").
