> If /var/dcc will not do, would /var/db/dcc be fine?

Yes, I think so. But only for the data-files, that the software needs to modify
at runtime. The binaries -- executables and libraries, and config-files still
do belong under PREFIX.

> DCCDATA knob seems more like a complete change of DCCHOME.

Yes and no :) It separates binaries from the data, which used to both go into
the same place. I do not see, why it should be an option at all...

What may be an option is using the same "home" for all of the services. Or
simply change the rc.d scripts to check for multiple rc-vars: dccX_home and
then, if not set, the dcc_home.
