Waldek, I think this is not a very good idea.  I think that those who really
want to install several flavours of axiom in parallel, will find a way to do
that.

But for all the others, it just means that incompatibility is increased.  For
example, axiom.el would have to be customized for no good reason.

Please do not commit this change.
