I don't know how to fix this easily.  May be someone else will
be able to provide a workaround using install-local/hook to
create these directories (I'm not familiar with these targets).

Otherwise, it's probably possible to avoid nobase_ in your Makefiles.
For instance, instead of

  nobase_include_HEADERS = dir1/file1.h dir2/file2.h

use something like

  include1dir = $(includedir)/dir1
  include2dir = $(includedir)/dir2
  include1_HEADERS = dir1/file1.h
  include2_HEADERS = dir2/file2.h
