I think eb-lite is still young enough to do this safely.  One would 
typically find that the kind of people who use alpha software are 
largely geeks who could fix this problem themselves, or at the least, 
report it.

Judging from what happened on the ayttm list when we made this change, 
we'll get several segfault reports in the first week or so, and then it 
should be clean.

Another solution may be to just change the path without prompting the
user.  This is only a problem if there are third party modules available 
for eb-lite.
