William does have a point.

* Simpler setup for users.
* (for now) a single package to distribute in Linux repos.
* Easier to track updates.
* Share same define and compile symbols easily.
* Ability to provide a single unified <bitcoin.hpp>

It could be possible with proper organisation to use a single repo and
keep everything properly split and modularised.

We also reduce the overhead for developers and users alike.

Eric what do you reckon if we merge libwallet back into libbitcoin?

We can also use conditional compilation (through macros like NO_WALLET or
NO_BLOCKCHAIN) to prevent including certain headers, which could be
enabled by certain ./configure switches (--no-wallet or --no-blockchain).
