It'd be cleaner to boot, too.
So what do you do with --bindir=/foo --with-layout=bar --sbindir=/baz shouldn't the bar layout override bindir but not sbindir? (Note I don't know the exact semantics --with-layout is supposed to have.) BTW, all of the apr_common.m4 code and your .in files anyway need an audit pass to cope with the GCS-induced changes for --datarootdir and its consequences; see the Autoconf NEWS entries and the manual about the changed default directories (and new ones).
