By the way, my "Auto-DESTDIR" program has now been released at http://www.dwheeler.com/auto-destdir - it supports DESTDIR in source installs, even when the original makefile doesn't support DESTDIR. One you have Auto-DESTDIR install, just run make-redir instead of make when you do an install. I.E., use "DESTDIR=... make-redir install" instead of "make install".
