i'd be better off without 'variants' (and just plugins). just not there
yet.

some plugins are compiled in mainly because of the s_dc output plugin
linkage problem. this blocks the switch to libgnucap.so and plugins.so
(this is really bad). i dont know how the output plugins are meant to
look like...

but not all plugins are compiled in. the architecture of -uf is still
the same, nevermind the file locations. the relevant parts have been
backported to the "autotools" branch. what i wrote about include
paths/variants etc. still applies there.

same with "modules" in gnucap-uf, though most plugins are singled
out and part of extra packages.

PS: i was wondering whether a symlink ${srcdir}/include/gnucap -> .
might reduce the headache of #include "gnucap/header.h". well, it feels
suboptimal, doesn't it?
