There is no way in the configure switches to set the
binprefix and manprefix variables.

I would assume there should be so you don't have to 
edit the Makefile.in.

The INSTALL document suggests editing Makefile after configure for
adjusting those definitions.  Personnaly, I do it at make time:

	make install binprefix=... manprefix=...

Even if this is not written anywhere (so far that I know), I got the
feeling that upper case definitions are meant to be adjusted by
configure, while lower case ones are meant to be adjusted `manually'.
