I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but when I build gambit-c with the --prefix option (like, say, --prefix=$HOME/scheme) it dumps all of the resulting binaries and libs in $HOME/scheme/v4.0.1/bin, $HOME/scheme/v4.0.1/share, etc. Is there any way to get the gambit build system to place these directories (the bin and share) directly in the directory specified by --prefix?

Marc has answered this on the mailing list on 2006-09-25:

--- If you don't like this change, just edit configure.ac and replace

PACKAGE_SUBDIR="/4.0b18"

by

PACKAGE_SUBDIR=""

I haven't tested this lately but it has worked in the past... YMMV. ---
