Configure can't handle directory names with underscores

           Summary: Configure can't handle directory names with underscores
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: Sun
               URL: http://razzle.stanford.edu
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Patrick.Nolan@stanford.edu


I'm trying to install 1.3.26 on Solaris 7.  Previous versions have left a
tangled mess of directories, so I have to use a bunch of configure options
like --runtimedir, --logdir, --htdocsdir and so forth.  Some of the
directories I'm specifying are something like /usr/local/etc/httpd_foo/logs,
while --prefix=/usr/local/etc/httpd.  When I run configure with --show-layout, 
it tells me, for instance,
  SERVER_CONFIG_FILE: _foo/conf/httpd.conf
Note that it seems to have lost the first part of httpd_foo.
It makes with no error messages, but when I run "httpd -t" it says,
http: could not open document config file   
   /usr/local/etc/httpd/_foo/conf/httpd.conf
Note that it has broken the name httpd_foo into two parts.

Obviously I could work around this by changing the directory names
and reorganizing them in a more up-to-date arrangement.  I was
hoping to have a solution I could just drop in place to minimize
down time.
