FLIM-CFG bug: VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR should be followed by emu

I have just installed flim-1.14.3 in my local directory.  Doing so, I
realized that there is a slight bug in FLIM-CFG.el.  The README.en
file states that 

  If the emu modules (included in APEL package) have been installed in
  the non-standard directory, you should specify where they will be
  found, for example:

        % make install VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR=~/elisp

FLIM-MK does the following setting of the load path:

  (if (boundp 'VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR)
  	(add-to-list 'load-path VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR))

However, if one uses `make install VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR=~/elisp'
the emu package is in ~/elisp/emu not in ~/elisp.  Consequently, the
above setting should be

  (if (boundp 'VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR)
  	(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "emu" VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR)))
  
or (if older version than apel-10.3 used ~/elisp) 

  (if (boundp 'VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR)
      (progn
  	(add-to-list 'load-path VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR)
  	(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "emu" VERSION_SPECIFIC_LISPDIR))))

Best
