Same for libexecdir and sysconfdir. Why doesn't autoconf append
${PACKAGE_TARNAME} to their defaults?

It is broken now:
$ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/nmh --libexecdir=/usr/libexec/nmh 2>&1 | \
egrep 'libexec|config files'
libexec install path : /usr/libexec/nmh/nmh
config files install path : /etc/nmh/nmh
