You confuse me. The purpose of AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS is to pass the
configure arguments to subordinate configures (e.g. --prefix) so that
as long as each subproject follows the same GNU-standard rules, the
binaries should install into the same directory.
Different "subprojects" may require a different version of autoconf,
automake, libtool, etc., so care must be taken to use the correct
tools when setting up the subproject.
