TODO : make APExp free-standing #2

The idea is to make sure that all source references are using relative paths so that one can build everything included in APExp from a local git checkout without first copying it to /. This will also make the project less vulnerable to source changes upstream in the host OS (9front)

Got some feedback to change install directories to the local checked out source and then bind over the system directories. A good idea - means that I will have to change all paths in the mkfiles to point to some variable like $APEXPROOT with a relative path to the root of the source check out or something.

I am currently working on this. APExp is currently NOT building because I am in the middle of the "portable" migration. Several unexpected issues popped up during this conversion. When it is solved, I will close this issue and annotate the first portable version with a release tag (v0.1).
