Axel tries to accelerate downloads by opening more than one connection to a
server (possibly to different servers). Because of its size it might also
be useful as a wget replacement on bootdisks and other small systems.

- Set --mandir and --infodir in CONFIGURE_ARGS if the configure script
  supports them.  This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
  do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
  which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
  Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
  PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
  subdirectory detection.

CC, CXX, CFLAGS, PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS may contain `/' in
them when using a non-default compiler/linker, so do not use `/' as
delimiter for s///. (I picked `|' instead)
