This is not so easy.
But we should first define how to set (dependent on some suffix):
Default value for "-userdir" command line param
Environment variable LYX_DIR_...
Package name (so as to allow to install simultaneously different
versions)
Executable names (tex2lyx..., lyx..., lyxclient...) and corresponding
manuals (lyx....1, ,)
Installation directory
Also the content of the manuals (lyx....1 lyxclient....1 tex2lyx....1) should
reflect the changes.
Maybe we need something for each of them? As I understood, this was what Peter
had in mind some time ago.

No. From my POV it could go, but it is not my doing.
But it's easier to handle if the executables don't have suffix. (manual names,
manual contents)
For me, I would only have to rewrite my wrapper-scripts.
