I had seen and read that, but checked it again. I have now 
relooked at all the files in the directory, and see some references 
to path, but no information on what one one would do to set it up. 

I also recall messages that something about the it was suppose to 
look in the current directory files, but it doesn't seem to do that in 
testing.

I also recall past messages where it was recommended to use the 
package as it was released rather than recompiling it. But these 
seems to say something needs to be modified, and things need to 
be rebuilt to use.
