Yes, new install directories. You don't want "make install" to produce a
tree with some files in the new locations and some in the old.
New makefile variables need adding everywhere. Automake needs upgrading
to 1.10 at the same time.
A number of local configure options (--with-datarootdir --with-docdir
--with-htmldir) need removing everywhere since new autoconf has standard
replacements for them. The documentation needs updating to remove those
options and reflect the standard replacements.
The local install-html support in automake-using directories (which those
configure options are present to support) needs removing when upgrading to
new automake with built-in install-html support.
