Well, I did really want to make it a test of nothing other than the -bindir
functionality, in fact it's more or less just a test of the corner cases for
func_relative_path! Using -rpath seems to work as far as supplying an input
value for $install_libdir and that's all I really want to achieve here: set
$install_libdir and $bindir and make sure that chunk of code DTRT. I think
it'll be OK, won't it, even if it is a bit unusual?
