it allows you to specify in the configure script, e.g.,
configure --libdir=$HOME/lib
make install
to tell it that
$HOME/lib/lynx.cfg
is the location of lynx.cfg (but the "lynx.cfg" isn't changeable - that
got lost in the changes made to fix LE's problems with the first implementation
of that option). But by reducing it this way, both the program and the makefile
are using the same definitions.
