%{_libexecdir}

"rpmlint -i", on emacs packages, says:

W: emacs non-standard-dir-in-usr libexec
Your package is creating a non-standard subdirectory in /usr. The standard
directories are:
        -X11R6          -X386
        -bin            -games
        -include        -lib
        -local          -sbin
        -share          -src
        -spool          -tmp
        -lib64

Actually, the %configure macros specifies-libexecdir=%{_libexecdir}, with:
  %_libexecdir		%{_exec_prefix}/libexec

If /usr/libexec is not a "standard" directory. What should be the correct 
value of %_libexecdir ? Why not just %{_exec_prefix}/%{_lib} ?

Note: I am compiling the emacs-22.0.50 of bug #176171, and tried rpmlint on 
the result.
