Indeed.  User migration will be an interesting exercise.  I think it's
more or less unavoidable to recompile everything for the prefixed
install.  Any ideas on how to do this are welcome.  I guess the most
trival one is to copy the world file, unmerge everything, and then
reemerge everything from the copied world file.   I guess this is not a
good solution...
