But the emacs executable is installed in /usr/local/bin or wherever.
The app bundle is there purely as a helper for running from the GUI.

If you want two, incompatible, UNIX style installs, you have to give
them different prefixes. You wouldn't expect to be able to install
both the PGTK and motif ports in the same place on a GNU/Linux system.
