Now I attempted to fix it, I wonder if it's not on purpose. If I fix it,
then running configure with no option will drop files in /usr/local/etc
and /usr/local/var, while everyone used to have them in /etc and /var.
This would violate POLA, so I'm tempted to not fix it.

And removing --sysconfdir and --localstatedir from configure --help will
not be easy. 

The best way to go is probably to default them to 
SYSCONFDIR=     /etc
LOCALSTATEDIR=  /var

instead of 
SYSCONFDIR=     ${prefix}/etc
LOCALSTATEDIR=  ${prefix}/var

Any DRAC user can contribute here?

That one can be fixed easily.
