Sorry, my question was not clear.  Automake generates a Makefile.in
that includes:

  libexecdir = @libexecdir@

and then configure outputs Makefile with substitutions:

  libexecdir = ${exec_prefix}/lib/${PACKAGE}

Why doesn't it output this?

  libexecdir = /usr/local/lib/foopackage

Is that because DISTDIR could be set at make install?  If that's the
only case then I can expand that at configure time and let configure
make my substitutions.  I just want to make sure there wasn't some
other reason.
