Do we want to hardcode the names to "LyX" instead of PACKAGE? That's
possible, but it remove the possibility to run two different versions
(say 1.3 and 1.4) of LyX concurrently. 

The code to modify is at line 611 of src/support/package.C.

How do you run 1.3.x and 1.4.0 side-by-side, by the way?

Sorry, my sentence was not very clear. I was wondering about adding
the skeleton in cvs under development/MacOSX, like we have
development/Win32/packaging/. The idea would be to have everything
(including the setup script) there. Tell me what you think.
