No, I meant that configure should replace all instances of e.g.
/etc/sshd_config with $sysconfdir/sshd_config etc.

This shouldn't be too difficult to do if you can assume perl can be used
at compile time (I guess it can) [1].  Or maybe not too
difficult, otherwise, either.

[1] perl -pi -e s"|@@SYSCONFDIR@@|$sysconfdir|g manpages
or the like

It looks like the original OpenSSH isn't autoconfized, though, so this
might create a small rift for manpages.
