+** AC_PROG_INSTALL
+This test should be extended to check that install supports the GNU
+Install syntax: install FILES... DIR.  This will relieve everybody
+form having to use mkinstalldirs to create the directories, as install
+does it itself.  install-sh is already handling this case.  This also
+makes it simple not to create the directories where nothing will be
+installed because of configuration options, which is next to
+impossible using the current setting.

+In other words: everything is ready (install-sh and Automake), we just
+need a good reimplementation of AC_PROG_INSTALL.
