Then presumably they're also smart enough to figure out where to find headers
to include, and that whole chunk of code can be removed from configure.in,
right?

Presumably, this will do the right thing on all UN*Xes even if, for example,
some prefix other than the default /usr/local is specified with --prefix, e.g.
--prefix=/opt?

The chunk of code was inserted by

    If using $prefix we add "$prefix/include" to the include search path
    and "$prefix/lib" to the library search path.

Stig?  What was the issue for which you added those lines?
