gdbm ignores --prefix (patch included)

[Eric Buddington]

gdbm 1.8.0 was configured thusly:

./configure --prefix=/packages/gdbm/1.8.0/any 
--exec-prefix=/packages/gdbm/1.8.0/any i386

and compiled beautifully, but on 'make install', attempted to install
under /usr/local. This seems to be written into Makefile.in.

This patch fixes the problem, though I suspect not *quite* correctly -
doesn't configure set some variables for mandir, libdir, bindir, etc?
This patch only honors @prefix@ and @address@hidden

Please let me know if this is uesful, or if a different approach is
needed. I'm willing to put in a littel time fixing this if you're
likely to apply the patch (but I don't want to waste my time).

-Eric
