Very little time right now, so only an answer that is easy for me to give:

Cmake links the the stuff to run from builddir. On make install, it relinks
stuff to run "normally".
So all that environmentsetting that was previously required with autofoo
didn't happen and it still worked. Sort of. It didn't work for stuff that
could only be found in the source directory. Either that stuff is already
installed in the final path or it isn't found at all.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
