It was a compromise, because you cannot fully expand variables that
contains other variables at configure time.

If I use ${libexec}/foo for example, in config.h I will usually get
${prefix}/libexec/foo and not /usr/libexec/foo, that because at
configure time only the outpost variable is substituted.

As for sss_cli.h I will address it in another patch.

Simo.
