That's not really a correct statement.
I need several versions of the same package and all of them need to be 
operational at the same time.
That means, I open two / three terminal windows and in each of them I start 
the same "sage" executable but each session should use a different version 
of my additional package ... something like:
export CURRENT_VERSION="in_this_window_use_that_version"; ./sage
That's why I cannot "install" my binaries (nor make symbolic links) into 
the standard $SAGE_ROOT/local/{bin|lib|...} subdirectories.
And that's why I need a mechanism of initialization at "run-time" 
(modification of "PATH", "LD_LIBRARY_PATH", "PYTHONPATH", ..)

Best regards,
Jacek.
