The default definitions of htmldir and pdfdir use ${docdir}, and docdir is 
defined in terms of datarootdir.  (When the src repository moves to newer 
autoconf with native support for all these directory variables, the custom 
configure code to deal with them will go away, and the makefiles will not 
need any changes as they will already define all required variables.)
