No parsers will have to be modified.  I'm only talking about modifying
the installation location of various flexml components.  The output from
'make install' (setting the base directory to /tmp/foo) will be

mkdir -p /tmp/foo/bin /tmp/foo/lib \
        /tmp/foo/share/man/man1 /tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2 \
        /tmp/foo/share/flexml-1.2 \
        /tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2/html \
        /tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2/examples
install -m555 flexml-1.2 /tmp/foo/bin/
install -m555 flexml-act-1.2 /tmp/foo/lib/
install -m444 skel /tmp/foo/share/flexml-1.2/
install -m444 flexml.1 /tmp/foo/share/man/man1/
install -m444 README NOTES TODO flexml-act.dtd EnlargeFlex.patch
/tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2/
install -m444 FleXML.html  /tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2/html/
rm -f /tmp/foo/bin/flexml
ln -s /tmp/foo/bin/flexml-1.2 /tmp/foo/bin/flexml
make -C examples install
make[1]: Entering directory `/links/extern/src/flexml-1.2/examples'
mkdir -p /tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2/flexml/examples
install -m444 my.dtd my-show.act my-joke.xml my-joke2.xml my-joke3.xml
tricky.dtd tricky.act tricky.xml test.html
/tmp/foo/share/doc/flexml-1.2/flexml/examples/

Note /tmp/foo/bin/flexml still exists as a symlink to flexml-1.2.
flexml.pl will be changed to make sure it picks up the default skel file
from the new place where it was installed.

I'd also like to pull out the common definitions in Makefile and
examples/Makefile into a single file Makefile.defs, then use
  include Makefile.defs

Any objections?  (Do non-gnu make programs handle "include"?)

Thanks,

Will
