Hey list,
I'd like to make the fully expanded $sysconfdir shell variable
available within a file processed via AC_CONFIG_FILES. I am currently
trying AC_SUBST([SYSCONFDIR], [$sysconfdir]), but it is not fully
evaluated at ${prefix}/etc which is useless for me. Any ideas?

Agreed. The whole purpose of autoconf is to help write portable scripts.
Paths with spaces in them, whether we like them or not, is often
uncontrollable and a fact of reality.
