Merge branch 'dj/runtime-prefix'

This topic branch first reverts a couple of conflicting patches and then
cherry-picks Dan Jacques' patches to support RUNTIME_PREFIX also on
other platforms than Windows. The original patches are already well
under way into the next Git version, and we just take them early to give
it a bit more testing.
