 That is correct, even if it is not printed appropriately.  However,
 the code uses some form of EXPANDED_BINDIR and similar variables which
 supposedly workaround that.  (Not that this means they do it
 correctly... if only they read the autoconf/automake documentation...)

 Not necessarily.  Building dbus and later grepping for ${exec_prefix}
 in its installed files should be enough, I bet.  (With the help of
 strings(1).)
