I would prefer if we don't rush with "program-transform-name" at the
expense of readability, but rather make other simplifications what would
have a similar effect.  I think ${libdir}/grub should be given a name
(e.g. grublibdir) in configure.ac and substituted in the scripts.

As for /boot/grub, we are not installing anything there on "make
install".  I don't think it should be transformed.  But we could accept
a configuration option to change that directory.
