I've only preserved what the code did before in case it wasn't
specified, but note that the GNU default was "$exec_prefix/libexec" and
the code overwrites that with essentially the libdir default. Not sure
whether that's what is right.

OK. I didn't see the whole patch, but I understand what you're trying to do. IIRC, the original only replicated what ConfigureMe did. But, it's now down lower, so it should have not been done with as big a hammer as it was ;-)

The GNU default wasn't right on any 64-bit machine, as far as I know...
Someone argued that we should probably be putting more of our binaries in the libexecdir directory than we do.

But, except for a few GNU tools, I don't think that directory is used very much...
