Of course, but this has to be done manually by end users to "clean-up"
wrong hard coded path. You can still do that if you want, but I believe
that the default has to be changed to something more reasonable. Since
there exist strict conventions on directory structure for open-source
software deployment ("bin", "src", "share", etc.), these have to be
exploited to install sources under ".../src/emacs" and referring to this
directory *relatively* from the currently running Emacs executable. To me
that looks like a robust and cross-platform default.
