the 'cd $srcdir/spamc; perl configure.pl && make' case isn't supported;
configure is only ever to be run from a top-level 'make'.  so if that breaks, so
be it, people aren't supposed to be building it like that ;)   I wouldn't worry
about that case at all.

regarding supporting this as a way to let people build spamc without spamd --
don't worry about that.  in that case it's expected that they'd built the lot,
but just install the spamc files.


'I've just done some poking, and it's possible, using a preprocessor
macro, to define CONFIG_FILE to @sysconfdir@/mail/spamassassin/spamc.conf 
_only_if_ the first character of @sysconfdir@ isn't '$', otherwise use
@prefix@/etc/spamc.conf. This can all be done before compilation, and so
will remove the need to check each time spamc is run. The major problem
would be if --sysconfdir isn't passed to configure, spamc (by default) is 
installed in /usr/local; there's no easy way to check that so that the
default sysconfdirs can be used (ie. /etc/mail/spamassassin for /usr/*,
/etc/opt for /opt/* etc.).'

do we need to have any of that logic in spamc?   can't that all be dealt with by
Makefile.PL, and it just passes in a single string for SYSCONFDIR, which spamc 
uses?
