Subject: Relocatable install patch

Hi,

This follows on from my "Tricky install question" earlier. This patch
allows "make" to supply different values at build time and install time
for key paths. So a

./configure --prefix=/foo
make
make PREFIX=/bar install

will install ruby under /bar, but looking for it's libraries under /foo.

So when the contents of /bar get moved to /foo it all works.

This makes a minor change to mkconfig.rb and adds some more logic to
instruby.rb. It does exactly the same as before for a plain 'make
install'.

To install the patch:
cd ruby-1.6.8; patch -p1 < /path/to/install.patch

Patch follows after sig. Comments welcome.

Cheers,
Mike
