OK, time to show my ignorance. The top level configure in the 0.44.0 source says


ac_default_prefix=/usr/local

and then goes on to define

test "x$prefix" = xNONE && prefix=$ac_default_prefix

Doesn't that mean that if you don't supply a "--prefix" to configure then "/usr/local" is going to get used? So then couriertls would be in /usr/local/bin? (I freely admit I know nothing about configure, make, etc. so I'm very happy to be shown the error of my ways!)

Earlier in the configure script you will find this:


if test x$prefix = xNONE
then
prefix="/usr/lib/courier"
ac_configure_args="$ac_configure_args -prefix=$prefix"
fi


The code you were looking at occurs later, and it's canned output generated by autoconf.
