Ok, Jean-Marc. I propose that on Windows machines we do something similar
to Ghostscript:
$ ls /mnt/windowsXP/Program\ Files/Ghostscript\ 8.33/gs8.33/
bin  doc  examples  lib  Resource  uninstal.txt

I propose a directory 'C:\Program Files\LyX\1.3.6' containing
sub-directories 'bin', 'locale' and 'share'. I don't see any reason to
make life complicated for ourselves.

I'll post the 'package' tar file again once I'm happy with things under
Posix and Win32. I'll need some further help for MacOS X.
