AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM

[Sam Clegg]

I am having a little trouble with AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM.
The info page says: 

    For example, if PROGRAM is `gcc' and the `PATH' contains
    `/usr/local/gnu/bin/gcc', set the prefix to `/usr/local/gnu'.

i.e. don't include the last '/bin' in the prefix.
But when I use AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM(xmms) and configure says:

    checking for prefix by checking for xmms... /usr/bin/xmms

I get in my Makefile:

    prefix = /usr/bin

Shouldn't this be simply '/usr'.  Am I missing something or is this 
a bug in autoconf.  I am using version 2.52 from debian/woody.

Thanks for any advise.
