It's for more than that.  SPOCK for instance installs its Scheme *and*
JS runtime into PREFIX/lib/chicken/8/spock/.  The latter is neither a
scheme-include nor a c-include.  Feathers installs itself into
PREFIX/share/chicken/feathers.tcl.  I'm not sure what I'd categorize
these as, but I suspect these eggs cannot be ported until you can
specify a PREFIX-relative destination directory (as opposed to
specifying the type of file to be installed).
