This analysis is nonsense on its face --- := is not an append operator
and we do not have any multiple values for datadir.

The referenced postgis-users thread seems to indicate that the postgis
guys found and fixed a problem in their own makefiles.  If not, we need
a clearer description of what they think the problem is.
