Things evolved gradually over the last 3 years to arrive at the
configuration we have today. I provided explanations so the changes do
not appear to be gratuitous.

I noticed the system_routine configuration is rather convoluted. I
prototyped a formal automake Makefile.am and it simplifies things quite
a bit, all the way up to configure.ac. As it is now, the system_routine
does not build from a tarball due to a missing Makefile.

I'd need a little help to do  a better job. I suppose "sr" is the system
routine, how would this gets used by someone who installed the package
from a distro? I am wondering which files to install from this subdir.

Thanks for the review.
