Unfortunately (and that applies to the development builds in the first I second this suggestion because I'm constantly having to rename my functions directory. It happens quite often that a development version doesn't work straight away and I have to revert. I seem to remember that the function installation did some clever things like checking if anyone had modified any of the supplied functions and not overwriting those? I think we would be best to advise people making local changes to the functions to copy them to their own directory before editing them and then make sure that directory appears earlier in the $fpath.
