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... joe
