Installation Direcotry Question

[Bret Jordan]

Setup: MySQL 4.0.17 Source Install, Linux 2.4.20

I am trying to specify the locations of the lib, include, and share 
directories with the configure script.  When I use a --prefix (as is 
mentioned in the manual in section 2.1.8) I get the locations such as 
lib/mysql, include/mysql, share/mysql.  When I try to use the other 
options in the configure script namely "libdir=", "includedir=", and 
"datadir=" (as the below example shows) the locations do not change from 
lib/mysql, include/mysql, share/mysql. 

Is there a reason why the configure script does allow you to set the 
directories with out the "mysql" sub directory for lib, include, and share?
