Also (though it's not quite as fast) if you don't like the prefix-path idea, 
you could build binary packages of each and switch between them that way. You 
can even use quickpkg to package the current one so you don't have to rebuild 
that one. It's not quite the same (config files have to be massaged) but 
it'll work.
