   Here we have part of the emacs-18.58/INSTALL file

   |3) Declare the place in the file system where Emacs will
   | be once installed.  This is done in the file `src/paths.h'.
   ......

   How many of us have edited paths.h by hand after reading the first
   paragraph, only later seeing that we didn't have to do that, once we
   read down to the second paragraph.

   Please put a "---but see below" or a "... by build-install, see
   below." at the end of the first paragraph.

   This happens to me every time I install a new emacs.

YES, I absolutely agree !
