Jup, it does :)

Does mzscheme also look for the libraries in /usr if you do the
following:
./configure --prefix=/usr

then manually edit the Makefile
and set the variable prefix to /tmp/package-plt-scheme/usr

On a different issue:
Do you want the package to install everything directly under /usr or
in a directory just for scheme, like /usr/plt-scheme-301.

For the first, I think it is weird to end up with /usr/collects,
/usr/notes, and /usr/teachpack.
For the second, you will need to set up the PATH and MANPATH
variables. (and maybe also INCLUDE and LIB).
For this you could simply place a script in /etc/profile.d.

Maybe we should take it of list, because it is more about slackware
packages then plt scheme in particular :)
