Hello Jim,

This is actually an Autoconf question.  I don't think that's easy to
infer, though.

Remember it for all applications that use Autoconf:
  echo sysconfdir=/etc  >>/usr/local/share/config.site

or, if you can still be able to override it from the command line, use
this line:
  test "$sysconfdir" = '${prefix}/etc' && sysconfdir=/etc

Here's more information:

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Ralf
