[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

When building a self contained Mac OS X app, the site-lisp dir that gets
inserted into `load-path` is not very useful, since it points to the
Emacs.app in `nextstep/` where emacs was compiled. For example:

"/Users/build/workspace/Emacs-Multi-Build/label/mavericks/emacs-source/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/share/emacs/24.4/site-lisp"

I think the site lisp path should be in `/Library/emacs` instead. Here
is a patch to do just that (created with `git format-patch`, is that
convenient? I don't know what works best in these cases).

I patched the trunk, but on reflection, it seems like this should go in
the 24 branch, too.

 apps.

* configure.ac (HAVE_NS): When self-contained, set datarootdir to
/Library so PATH_SITELOADSEARCH path points there instead of inside
the Emacs.app build dir.
