If you are comfortable with making patches and compiling, LilyDev is

Agreed. Urs: if you didn't get that impression from reading the
CG, then could you suggest somewhere to add something to that
effect (or maybe just copy James' comment literally) ? We don't
actually want to discourage experienced linux users from using
their native environment; like you, I would find it a bit
insulting if a project really did claim that I wasn't able to set
up my own devel environment. That said, we want to make it
absolutely clear that sorting out the potentially-complicated
build dependencies is not *required* from contributors.
