Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment:

srcdir vs. project base is quite easy: srcdir is the directory containing the 
source files, the project base is where you ran configure. These are the same 
if you run configure in the root of a checkout, but don't have to be, for 
example when you do:

$ mkdir buildroot
$ cd buildroot
$ ../configure # ...

Now de base directory is the 'buildroot' directory, while srcdir is its parent 
directory.
