Well, $(sysconfdir)/apop, but yeah.  Okay - I can let make take care
of the expansion, then.  I guess that also allows 'prefix' to be
overridden after './configure' and still work.

I think for now I'm not going to allow the base to be overridden (it
becomes either apop.db or apop.passwd as appropriate, and I think
overridding part of the filename doesn't make sense)

Tks,
