I don't think there's a right way to do that with PLaneT. A package
with the new package system is really the right way.

That should work, but it feels wrong; it's acting at the wrong layer.
The `raco setup' tool, for example, expects the set of available
collections to stay fixed while it is setting up collections. Another
symptom is there's no way (I think) for uninstalling the package to
uninstall the link.
If you go this route, maybe at least double-check that no "sicp"
collection already exists before adding the link:
(collection-path "sicp" #:fail (lambda (x) #f))
