Fixed. I found a kludge to poll dpkg for the target triplet. This still doesn't resolve the issue of why --prefix doesn't correctly propagate to --libdir and --mandir out of the box. Neither of these should need to be manually specified if --prefix propagates. Upstream's ./configure script probably is broken in some way. Martin-Éric
