The goal was to allow to install both 2.1 and 2.2 along side. This is broken
because there is only one include/pari directory for both so you can
have only one set of header file installed in a specific location.

It is possible to support both runtime environment at the same time, but
supporting both build environment is not really doable.

We need to add a make install-xxx target that only install the runtime
environment, remove the link libpari-2.2.so, add a link libpari.so -->
libpari-2.2.so.N and install libpari.a as libpari.a.

Cheers,
Bill.
