GNU Coding Standards recommend that packages install their subsidiary
executables in a subdirectory of $(libexecdir), suggesting $(libexecdir)/
$(PACKAGE)[1]. CVS m4 wants to use this idiom for installing its libtool
modules, rather than $(pkglibdir) which is for object code used in linking
rather than shared libraries for dlopen'ing. It would be nice if automake
provided $(pkglibexecdir) alongside $(pkglibdir) and friends.
