I think the point is we only have one set of sources .. and we create
links to the monolith from the auto-tooled tree initially so we don't
get out of sync.. the plan is not to re-do Debrix or xlibs as-is, or
maybe I've missed something, the impression I got from reading the
docs was you would still require a monolith tree checked out, you
would check out the auto-tools framework and it would link the files
over and to the build in the autotooled framework,

then just before we launch 7.0 we just move all the files across in
the repoistory and drop the links..
