Because tarlz does not need them. (Tarlz does not install libraries).

See http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Directory-Variables.html

"These variables specify the directory for installing certain specific types 
of files, if your program has them. Every GNU package should have Info 
files, so every program needs 'infodir', but not all need 'libdir' or 
'lispdir'."
