Allright, I found the solution (and make changes to protux/libmustux):
1) we need to create acconfig.h file on main level with following:

---clip---
/*Define protux prefix*/
#undef PROTUX_PREFIX
---clip---

2) then we have to add to configure.in (after the default prefix 
defination, so that there will allways be something)

---clip---
AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(PROTUX_PREFIX,${prefix})
---clip---

Now when 'make -f admin/Makefile.common' is executed it automaticly 
reruns autoheader, which recreates config.h.in-file with PROTUX_PREFIX 
defination, which is filled up in config.h when ./configure is executed.

simple ;)

Now when PROTUX_PREFIX is needed (and MUSTUX_PREFIX in libmustux), 
simply add '#include <config.h>' to your source file and there will be 
define clause with right path.
