+## Neither the rawether executable nor any of the scripts are directly
+## executable, instead rawether gets fork()'d/execve()'d by the Tcl
+## script so $(libexec) is appropriate. Strictly speaking the
+## Tcl scripts and data files are architecture-independent so should
+## probably be installed in an analogous directory below $(datadir),
+## but that would add more directories for little real gain. The scripts
+## are treated as data files since they should not be executed directly,
+## i.e. they should not be installed with the execute bit set.
