Thanks - I hadn't got around to testing this on Windows yet.
You changed the behaviour so it's possible to configure a package to
have a fixed install location on Windows. This is fine, but I think if
the user does this then the configure step should emit a warning saying
that the package has a fixed install location. Could you add that?
Cheers,
Simon
