I think it ignores .pan and just uses .pan2. That way you can keep 
old-pan around (it uses .pan). I think the structure is different too.

That's what I do, and I just have a symlink ~/.pan2 pointing to the 
actual .pan2 (which is not in my home directory).
I think there's an environment variable you can set to specify any 
directory pathname you want (but I forget what it is).
