>Summary: obsolete mandir/htmldir and poor docdir specifications

Initial Comment:
Despite setting --mandir=<something other than
/usr/man> to ./configure, the man-files are stored
there.  All Makefile.in's have the correct mandir
specification of

mandir = @mandir@

except for src/Makefile.in

Automake creates that entry automatically so long as no
overriding entry exists in Makefile.am. So, if you
remove the

mandir = $(prefix)/man

from src/Makefile.am, everything should be set correctly.

One more thing (sorry for submitting this bug report in
fragments): an empty directory /usr/LessTif/doc/html/ is
created because of references to html documentation with an
entry in src/Makefile.am:

htmldir= $(prefix)/LessTif/doc/html

That (and a few other stale references to html_*) should be
removed

The submitted patch takes care of all three issues.

Also (I had forgotten about this), xbae makes a /usr/Xbae
directory during installation. This is specified by the
docdir variable in ./Makefile.am:

docdir= $(prefix)/Xbae.

That should probably be changed to:

docdir= $(datadir)/Xbae

to match the one in doc/Makefile.am.

I've attached a patch that makes these two changes.
