Right, but my thought was that it might be useful to have $(datadir)/X11 be
defined itself as a variable so that all the other various options didn't
have to manually specify $(datadir)/X11, and could just use the other
variable. It's not a big deal, just a potential increase in convenience
that probably isn't worth going through the whole tree to fix.
