I have added the two files (Makefile.in and src/epath.in) just now. >From your past mail: | 2. Add a new macro PATH_SCMLOADSEARCH in src/epaths.in.

I'm not sure I could manage that. A list of functions/features might be helpful. Not necessary to be written precisely because they will possibly change soon.
