 There is in fact no reason to do this in two steps, except that it looks a bit
more symmetric. Is there? Anyway, I'm OK with how it is now, it looks pretty.

 BTW, now that you've reduced the body of the loop to a single statement, you
can actually avoid the $$$$ hell by using xargs instead of for.

 Perhaps there should be an explanatory comment of what happens here (before the
define):

# Most autotools packages install libtool .la files alongside any installed
# libraries. These .la files sometimes refer to paths relative to the sysroot,
# which libtool will interpret as absolute paths to host libraries instead of
# the target libraries. Since we configure with --prefix=/usr, such absolute
# paths start with /usr. So we add $(STAGING_DIR) in front of any path that
# starts with /usr.
# To protect against the case that the output directory itself is under /usr,
# we first substitute away any occurences of the output directory to @BASE_DIR at .

 This one is sufficiently self-explanatory, so no additional comment is needed IMHO.

 The @STAGING_DIR@ is still redundant, though :-)
