Is there a reason for re-defining the value?

I will probably be able to work around them; but I think
automake/autoconf supports having DATADIR etc set at 'make' time
(depending on the 'prefix' value). Which will be broken in this approach.

I think it's more recommended to use sed for this purpose.
It's more well-known to be mostly working on most ports.

I had used this kind of snippet:
dmboot: ${srcdir}/dmboot.in
        sed -e "s%[@]dmachinemon-master[@]%@bindir@/dmachinemon-master%" -e "s%[@]dmachinemon-servent[@]%@bindir@/dmachinemon-servent%" -e "s%[@]mandir[@]%@mandir@%" < $? > $@
