Actually, I thought the same until last night, when I realized that
mklang.sql is in fact being made wrong --- the ${exec_prefix} should
be expanded when the file is created, but it isn't. (There's another
bug in it too: .so is hardwired, when it should be DLSUFFIX.)
So now I think what's really going on is that people *are* faithfully
following the install directions, but it's not working because of this
screwup. Oops.
Fixing it is not quite as trivial as I first thought --- see related
messages in hackers list.
