I would like to work a bit on the install targets

The first thing I would like to do is to factor the
calls to install, using "install FILES... DIR".  One
problem is nobase_.  I see several means to cope with it:

- Don't try to factor calls to install with nobase_*

- Add a special --nobase flag to install-sh and use it
  blindly for nobase_*.

- Sort and filter the files to install in nobase_*.
  I guess that in a first step, I would grep the files
  that do not have a slash, and make one call for them,
  then sort the remain files to group them per directory
  and then make one call for each set.  This should be
  simple using xargs, but I'm unsure about xargs'
  portability.  Any clue?
