Oh, sorry.  share-subdirs.lisp is created via configure from
share-subdirs.lisp.in.

I suppose share-subdirs.lisp could be checked in.  Then configure would
(hopefully) overwrite it with the correct values.  Then a pure lisp
build would get some mostly correct value.

I don't really like having generated files checked in, but I can't think
of any other solution right now.  (Same thing with sys-proclaim.lisp. 
It's checked in, but it's really machine-generated by gcl, and because
it's checked in, people manually edit the file and check in new
versions.   That's bad.)
