Well, it's probably easy to write a wrapper around all of the binaries,
like the (modified) bconsole wrapper below. But that's ugly. I'm not
so sure whether changing the lookup from "." to $prefix/etc/bacula is
convenient in all situations. E.g. on a rescue CD. Maybe a combination
of $HOME/.bacula with a bacula.conf file in it that has a "configdir"
directive. I wish i had kept my mouth shut.

# The following works, because bconsole accepts multiple '-c' options.
# The last '-c' wins.
exec $prefix/sbin/bconsole -c $prefix/etc/bacula/bconsole.conf "$@"
