Comment:

 Is it intentional that that new env var is only used when B10_FROM_BUILD
 is not set? (one could imagine it could also come in handy if it is). If
 so, these changes by themselves are fine.

 IF it is set, and we are not in a testing environment, communication
 between xfrout and b10-auth will fail now, so we either need some very big
 warnings to never set it unless you are testing xfrout, or also use the
 var in bin/auth.

 On a more general note, we have a file
 src/lib/python/bind10_config.py[.in] for configure-time substitions in
 python, I think we should move all occurrences (including the ones here)
 to that file. Perhaps we should even move the whole init_paths() there, so
 that we can make a more general one, but just moving the substitutions
 there would also be fine for me, so that we don't need to generate .py
 files anymore (well, except for that one, of course).

 We could make a bigger (but quite straightforward) task to do all of the
 occurrences for that at once, or do this one in this ticket and do the
 rest as they come along. In the case of the first, I think this change is
 fine.
