Summary: top_builddir problem in configure.in and makefiles.in

Initial Comment:
There are many places in configure.in and makefiles.in,
where $(top_builddir) is being used. This variable
should always contain relative path to the root build
dir (where configure lies).
On some places it is used as $(top_builddir)/something.
This is correct. But these are also places with
$(top_builddir).lib/something or
$(top_builddir)something. This make many problems like 
CFLAGS='-I.libs/something'
apparently '.libs' dir does not exist.

Note: The makefiles and configure would have been ok,
if top_builddir variable ended with a slash. Too bad,
it doesn't.

Large patch file is attached.

I've written a sed/bash script that repairs these
places. Contact me if you want it.

Happy hacking
