install autoconf as 'relocatable'

Hi,

(Apologies - I posted this to the wrong mailing list earlier)

I'd like to create a pax file (tarball) of an autoconf build that
people can download and then install on their system in the
directory of their choice. I am building for z/OS (the mainframe),

and developers typically don't have authority to install into a shared location

like /usr/local and instead have to install into their own private location,

e.g. /u/fultonm.

It looks like I can make this work by having the person export a number of
environment variables, but I was hoping to make it easier than that for them.

Any thoughts on how I can tackle this?
I think automake and libtool will have similar issues.

Thanks, Mike Fulton
