Hmmm ... Ok - I'm confused by your statement :-)
Either you mean 'to build gnustep binaries in different directories than
the _source_ directory' or maybe you rather mean 'to _install_ GNUstep
binaries in different directories than the installation directory', which
would explain the 'like making an RPM' comment.

Because you're talking of special-prefix, I think what you really want to
do is relocate the whole installation into somewhere else - precisely what
is needed to build rpms.
Something like -
make INSTALL_ROOT_DIR=/var/tmp/package-build/ \
GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR=/var/tmp/package-build/usr/GNUstep/System \
install
should do it then.
[If you're building RPMs, you are certainly aware that gnustep-make can
build that for you :-) have a look at core/make/Master/rpm.make.]
