I am not sure what you are trying to achieve with this patch. Is the
idea to move the default global prefix out of pkg.m, into a new smaller
file? If this is indeed the case, I don't think this is especially
relevant for us. We can patch pkg.m directly.
Actually I realize that we may not even need to patch it. I am currently
investigating whether we really need to set "pkg prefix"
in /etc/octave.conf. Maybe this is no longer needed.
Cheers,
