Er, ok, whatever[*]; but then a subdirs.el file should work.

I wasn't sure how well subdirs.el would work for the install directory
because Gnus usually uses the top-level dir, and coordinating that
between multiple installed package may not be easy.  However for the
source directory it should be no problem.
