In addition, the SGML files have been converted from LinuxDoc to DocBook.
The way root_bindir, root_sbindir, and root_libdir have been changed so that
if root_prefix is not set, the values set by the configure command-line options to
set the directory names using --bindir, --sbindir, --libdir will affect the
root_bindir, et.al Makefile variables.
