I've checked in a change to do that.

I've also checked in a change to:

	get rid of all the DATAFILE_DIR stuff in the top-level configure
	script (the *ONLY* code that should care about DATAFILE_DIR is
	"get_datafile_dir()" - everything else should call
	"get_datafile_dir()" to get that directory, so that it works
	correctly on UNIX and Windows);

	define DATAFILE_DIR as $datadir/ethereal, which is where the
	configuration files get installed;

so Ethereal/Tethereal should now find the manuf file - and the Diameter
XML files, if built with libxml2 - in the place where it's now installed.
