I though about that too. In fact, I tried it out. I finally decided not 
to do so because:
1) The source dir is not very large.
2) Copying all those necessary directories would make the code look 
strange. After all, at least the following directories have to be 
copied, config, bin, lib, stubdata, tools. I'd rather prefer a one-line 
solution.
