?X: Used as: "set dflt var dir; eval $prefixit" to set $dflt to be
?X: $prefix/dir by default, or the previous $var depending on certain
?X: conditions:
?X: - If the $oldprefix variable is empty, then $prefix holds the same
?X:   value as on previous runs. Therefore, reuse $var if set, otherwise
?X:   set $dflt to $prefix/dir.
?X: - If $oldprefix is not empty, then set $dflt to $prefix/dir if $var
?X:   is empty (first run). Otherwise, if $var is $oldprefix/dir, then
?X:   change it to $prefix/dir. If none of the above, reuse the old $var.
?X:
?X: When dir is omitted, the dflt variable is set to $var if prefix did not
?X: change, to an empty value otherwise. If dir=none, then a single space
?X: in var is kept as-is, even if the prefix changes.
