[PATCH] use autoconf MKDIR_P to reduce usage of legacy mkinstalldirs script

Basically all platforms have a proper "mkdir -p". Autoconf has install-sh as 
fallback when using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P, which is also hardened against races if 
it is recent enough. Update that script and use MKDIR_P whereever possible.

Greetings,

Eike
