Thanks, that makes sense.  I find it a bit confusing because
exec_prefix already carries the host type with it, either implicitly
(in that you shouldn't use the same exec-prefix for different host
types) or explicitly (in our builds,
--exec-prefix=${prefix}/H-${host_alias}), but your new implementation
definitely makes more sense than the earlier version.
