I patched tools/dev/install_files.pl in the branch, then Allison patched 
trunk with something different, which does not work.

I needed now this to copy also the [main] parts of the library,
esp. PCT and PGE. The logic unfortunately needs to include everything 
and exclude compilers|config|language|tools. There's only [library] and 
[main] left anyway.

-    elsif ( /\[library]/ ) {
-        $dest =~ s/^runtime/$options{libdir}/;
-    }
      else {
-        $dest = File::Spec->catdir( $options{prefix}, $dest );
+        $dest =~ s|^src/|lib/parrot/src/|;
+        next if $dest =~ /^compilers|config|language|tools/;
+        if (/^runtime/) {
+            $dest =~ s/^runtime/$options{libdir}/;
+        } else {
+            $dest = File::Spec->catdir( $options{prefix}, $dest );
+        }
      }
