How lucky, that configure (and the old autoconf macro) uses 
INSTALL_DATA = '${INSTALL} -m 644'

Note that $INSTALL gets not expanded in the AC_PROG_INSTALL macro, but in
the Makefile, so I only need to change $INSTALL, and its taken up by all
Makefiles. Or what do you mean? At least for me I get in my Makefiles:

INSTALL = /usr/bin/install -c -p
INSTALL_PROGRAM = ${INSTALL}
INSTALL_DATA = ${INSTALL} -m 644
INSTALL_SCRIPT = ${INSTALL_PROGRAM}

(May be it gets confused because you have INSTALL_DATA=... in your
startup-scripts?) Or was it a feature request?


Ciao,
Michael.
