Nope. checked that. I didn't went over all the scripts, so it's quite
possible that there's some libc detection routine (though I doubt it), but
those dirs definetly go in for the --prefix option.
it actually goes something like :
<pseodo shell script>
if we have --prefix
$include_directories = $prefix/include
$library_directories = $prefix/lib
else use --exec-prefix and do the same thing

Thanks, I'll look into it (though I'm not very optimistic).
