Well, you could avoid this by taking the mode stuff that it cares about
and adding it to INN::Config, and then it would only have to be processed
by fixscript.  That's probably the easiest solution overall.

When it's in comments, I'm not sure that it's worth the effort of
substituting it.  Anyone who knows enough to look at the comments probably
knows enough to know what @bindir@ means in that context.
