I have transferred scheme sources and unpacked, then I printed whatever
documentation I've found and I still don't know how to install it.
Is there some kind of README.INSTALL, or INSTALL or an appropriate
section in some of the documents that I have missed? I've noticed
a file config.sh in src/microcode which is very consoling - that will
probably make microcode for me. What about the other directories though?
Have I missed something? My machine is Sequent S27, so I can't use any
of the predigested binary distributions.

My guess is that you mistakenly picked up version 7.1 for which the
INSTALL files are in the predigested tar files. As the README file for
the distribution states, version 7.1 is only available for a few
machine/os combinations. Version 7.0 is generic enough to support many
more combinations. There is a README file in the top level directory
of that distribution (i.e. dist-7.0/README) which will lead you to the
INSTALL files.
