Im not a huge fan of the hard-coded directories, i think it might be
kind of nice to have a data_dir_prefix that would default to whatever
automake/autoconf says, but also takes queues from an environment
variable...so
I know this is possible, but I am a bit confused about why. Woulnt it be
easier to modify $(datadir) via ./configure --datadir=xxx, and use the
whole automake system for gnuradio? What are you attempting to do,
making a distributable package?

I can think of two possible solutions:
1) Put a switch at the top of each of these files along the lines of:
import os
DATA_DIR = os.getenv ("GRC_DATADIR")
if not DATA_DIR:
DATA_DIR = @datadir@
and because we like one-liners :-)
import os
DATA_DIR = os.environ.get("GRC_DATADIR", @datadir@)
