Comment (by drkp):

 Yes, this is to support the TeX Distribution prefpane that's used by
 MacTeX and is used to select between multiple TeX Live installations. The
 actual TeX files are in $prefix.

 There's no reason to try to change where the TeX Distribution symlinks are
 installed, but we could control whether they are installed with a variant.
