Comment (by jhpalmieri):
If you look at `src/scripts/R.sh.in`, it has lines like
{{{
R_HOME_DIR="@prefix@/${libnn}/R"
}}}
My understanding is that `prefix` gets set by the configure script, stored
in `Makefile.conf`, and then read by `src/scripts/Makefile` so this
variable's value can get used when making the R script. In particular, the
R people are deliberately using the `prefix` variable here. So it looks
like their design decision, not a bug. But I'm not sure I understand your
point.
