https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.63/html_node/Installation-Directory-Variables.html
and
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Standard-Directory-Variables.html

all point to prefix rather than PREFIX, so maybe we should go that way.

I'll send a patch, feel free to try it out and review/ack/nak depending
