I'm not sure if it is unsafer that searching in $PATH. Anyway I don't
think that your proposed solution is good way. I'm able to do it but how
many other people can? Who know where collateindex.pl stays on Solaris?
configure is here to make live easier for people. If we know how to do
it automatically we should do it.

If you think that $DOCBOOKSTYLE/.. is not good than I propose to
use /usr/share/sgml/docbook/ directly.
