GNU Emacs 18.53.11 on NeXT 1.0.1

It would be nice if the directory structure of Emacs were such that
you could share all source (notably .c) among networked machines of
different architecture while also having .o's for the different
architectures.

You can do this using links, but I would find it handier (and cleaner)
if it were part of the distribution.

For instance, all .c's could be in src, and then you'd have one
directory per architecture (src/v-sun2, src/v-next, ...) which contained
ONLY the makefile, config.h, and the .o's.  This is probably not the
ideal way to do things, just an idea....

I don't think we're the only site with multiple architectures sharing
files vis NFS and AFS....
