bug#19850: 25.0.50; [PATCH] configure.ac: Fix site-lisp paths with NS self-contained apps.

[Jan D.]

Hi.

If we keep site-lis as it is, we can have several Emacs versions installed, 
with different site-lisp:s. Also, changing files in site-lisp does not require 
root priviliges.
Your change breaks both those feaures.

I don't think this is a good idea.
