OK. I've figured out a relatively efficient way to handle *most* of the
cases of 'configure', 'make', and 'make install' being done in different
paths.
There's one case this *can't* handle. The specification of
${srcdir} must not change from configure time to make time to
'make install' time. In other words, you can't pass a totally different
srcdir on the 'make' command line and expect it to work.
Is this acceptable, or should I try to get this case?
