In the following manner: Only a top-level gcc configuration would set
@USE_SRC_VPATH@ to empty.  The default would be to set it to '#' thus
by default one would get a libiberty Makefile which looks just like
the current Makefile.

In the alternative, I will just install an update of my patch with the
logic flipped and enabled for all target-only libraries as requested
by Nathanael.
