Thanks.  This LGTM, except the changes to item 6: there, I would only
mention the possibility of building out of the source tree.  Whether
running uninstalled is possible in this case depends where is the
build tree relative to the source tree, so I'd rather not describe all
the gory details there because they are too complex to explain (what
you wrote is inaccurate); I'd just say that running uninstalled is
fully supported only when Emacs is built in the source tree.

This is incorrect: native-lisp is installed under /usr/lib/emacs/VERSION,
not under /usr/share/emacs/VERSION.
