Joseph,
PREFIX specified in build.h has no effect on installation, or vice-versa.

In the patch you sent, every instance of $(DESTDIR) can be handled by a change 
of PREFIX (in effect, set PREFIX = $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)) for installation, like:
 make .... PREFIX=<whatever> ....
 make install .... PREFIX=DESTDIR<whatever> ....

So I'm not quite sure what you're trying to work around. Please describe a test 
case, as you suggested.

Regards
Tom
