I made a patch which seems to fix this for me - see below. (Note that I've
not run it through autoconf; I just edited configure and configure.in by
hand)

There is still the underlying issue that, in effect, the same value is being
calculated twice independently:

  prefix/libdir --> ./configure ----> RUBY_LIB_PREFIX in config.h ---> $:
                             \
                              `--> mkconfig.rb --> rbconfig.rb
                                                   [rubylibdir]
                                                      \
                                                       `-> files installed
                                                                 here

But at least, overriding --libdir now has (hopefully) the same effect on
both.

Regards,

Brian.
