Thanks! Are these local patches upstreamable (or already so)? /cc @talex5

I don't know why upstream uses lib/0install.net for plugins and couldn't figure out how to make opam install the files there instead of lib/0install, without resorting to misc section. Looks like exactly a situation that warrants a local patch.

It might also be worth noting that the OCaml API isn't fixed (so you shouldn't use it as a library yet). However, the command-line interface, JSON interface, and XML formats will remain backwards compatible.

Also, I suspect the GUI will be broken on OS X, as it requires the Lwt fixes from ocsigen/lwt#25 (which aren't in 2.4.4).

@ygrek: local patches are fine, but it's preferred to incorporate them upstream in the longer term (i.e. expose a configure option OPAM can use, or something else). The packaging hooks are also of use to other OSes, usually.

Anyway, not a blocker for this version, so I'm merging now.
