And then I reverted them, since they broke VPATH builds with in-tree
apr/apr-util.  apr-util needs to find both apr_rules.mk and the awk
scripts, for the in-tree build, the former lies in a VPATH build
directory, the latter in the VPATH source directory; `apr-config
--installbuilddir` can't point to both.

I remember now why a two-line apr-config patch in the RPM was the
simplest solution...
