Comment (by rws):

 It probably happens when `autoconf` is run, because the path is hardcoded
 in the `Makefile`. I can reproduce it with a git-2.0.0 version outside of
 Sage. This looks like the relevant log, i.e., not a wrong setting, but the
 failure of an env var being set:
 {{{
 config.log:| # If user did not specify libexecdir, set the correct target:
 config.log:| # Nor FHS nor openSUSE allow prefix/libexec. Let's default to
 prefix/lib.
 config.log:|
 config.log:| if test "$libexecdir" = '${exec_prefix}/libexec' ; then
 config.log:|    libexecdir='${exec_prefix}/lib'
 }}}
 But since this is official behaviour, Sage should be aware of it.
