I just noticed that 6.18 no longer sets PREFIX to anything. This came up when it was discovered that the razor-agents package was no longer installing its man5 documentation. It was doing INSTALLMAN5DIR = $(PREFIX)/man/man5
While technically it should go through the bother of making INSTALLSITEMAN5DIR and INSTALLVENDORMAN5DIR, that would involve using SITEPREFIX and VENDORPREFIX which introduces a backwards compatibility problem. In order to avoid breaking too many existing modules and in order to avoid module authors who want to do interesting things from having to go through a lot of extra stuff they probably don't care about, I think I'll set PREFIX based on the value of INSTALLDIRS. So by default PREFIX=$(SITEPREFIX) which is a fair approximation of correct behavior.
