From: Martin Wilck <[email protected]> In the default configuration (both prefix and usr_prefix unset), we'd install man pages and headers under /share/man and /include, respectively, which is very unusual. Have usr_prefix default to /usr in (the default) case where prefix is empty, and set it equal to /prefix otherwise.
