Bug description

Full_Name: Ian Zimmerman
Version: 3.04
OS: Debian GNU/Linux
Submission from: dsl081-049-223.sfo1.dsl.speakeasy.net (64.81.49.223)

There's a tiny problem with the 3.04 installation procedure. When make install
recurses into camlp4's subdirectory, it passes down the current value of LIBDIR

• but not BINDIR or MANDIR. This means even if I say, for instance

make PREFIX=/usr/local/stow/ocaml install

the camlp4 executables and manpages still go to /usr/local/bin and
/usr/local/man, or whatever was chosen at configure time.

The fix is simple, just add

BINDIR=$(BINDIR) MANDIR=$(MANDIR)

to the recursive make install for camlp4.

Thanks for your good works, Ian.
