$prefix is set by passing the command line option or by default when
calling AC_OUTPUT, but since AC_OUTPUT is called at the end, this is
not really helpful, so we have to set $exec_prefix manually to the
correct value, either $prefix if different than NONE or
$ac_default_prefix. I agree that the previous patch was a bit of a
mess with $prefix and $exec_prefix, this is more "correct"

autoconf: fix libdir detection

If user specifies a libdir it is used, if no libdir is specified
configure checks if $exec_prefix/lib64 is a directory and uses that,
if not lib is used.
