As said many times on this list, do NOT manipulate the .app bundle.
Extensions are installed in ~/Library/Preferences/Aquamacs Emacs (or
the system-wide equivalent in /Library). You should be able to a
directory there to keep different extensions separate. You can
compile using Aquamacs as you say, or, more reliably, use --with-emacs
`which emacs', which will select the emacs that comes with OS X. It
is usually in /usr/bin/emacs, I believe.
