The build system knows where it is installing stuff. The answer here is to
push the paths from the build system into a header file, then we will also
work with non-standard install prefixes and the like. Kind of like what xend
does with util/auxbin.py, but we don't need something as complex as that. I
will pick up this work item myself, since it is very simple. ;-)
