Oh, OK ...  I thought the examples and other list threads with R3000XRs 
showed a version string being echoed at this point.

The way I configured it, that should be /opt/nut/var:

[from config.status:]

  exec /bin/bash "./configure" '--prefix=/opt/nut' 
'--htmldir=/var/httpd/local/manuals/nut' '--with-serial' 
'--with-gd-includes=-I/usr/local/include' '--with-gnu-ld' 
'--with-statepath=/opt/nut/var' '--with-pidpath=/opt/nut/var' 
'--with-user=nut' '--with-group=nut' '--with-cgi' '--with-lib'
 '--without-usb' '--without-snmp' '--without-ssl' 
$ac_configure_extra_args --no-create --no-recursion
