Why would it be useful? I use stow for all of my source-installed stuff, but
GARNOME manages its own prefix, and you're going to need the same weird
startup files even if you install it into /usr/local.

[ I guess you could stow and unstow versions of GARNOME and keep the same
startup files though... I just use the GARNOME= variable in mine, so it's an
easier change anyway. :-) ]
