Unfortunately, this didn't seem to fix it for me (on Redhat 7.1). The
quoting change appears to be a valid addition, but insufficient. The
generated configure file has this line unchanged:
ac_default_prefix=/usr/local
...which looks right, but it is being ignored.
Further down in the configure file, the additional quotes come through
correctly, but "prefix" is till not even looking at ac_default_prefix
(it appears ac_default_prefix is inert):
prefix=NONE
I did not investigate if there is code somewhere that is supposed to
test "prefix" for "NONE", and substitute "/usr/local" only if it is
currently "NONE", but the install still failed to copy header files. The
"NONE" directories are still being used, rather than
/usr/local/include/xercesc/.
It would be interesting if autoconf and friends had a debugger with
breakpoints and watches, oh well.
