Nah! It's at best a one-line-hack, using a well-understood teqnique. I
could make a note of it in the docs I suppose. But it's too incomplete
to warrant a script. (For example, I've often forgotten that this
still picks up the old gettext .mo files in /usr/share/... , so it would
be quite frustrating for developers if they thought this was the best
way to run alexandria during development).

The correct thing to do would be to figure out how to install the whole
alexandria package to an arbitrary directory with scripts, ruby libs
and resources working appropriately.
