[jdee-devel] More customizable build system

[Espen W. <es...@gr...>]

The following patch (against the phil_lord/dimitre_liotev_new_build branch)
makes build.el load "local-build.el" if it exists before starting the
byte-compile.

The idea is to have a place for local customizations of load-path,
byte-compile-warnings etc.; build.el's system of using environment
variables doesn't work all that well on a Debian-based system if you've
installed cedet etc. as packages.

My local-build.el looks like this:

(setq byte-compile-warnings '(not cl-functions))
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/cedet-common")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/eieio")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/semantic")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/elib")
