        cd
        make -p does-it-work/foo
        ./configure --prefix=$HOME/does-it-work/foo
        make; make check; make install
        # try it ...

        # you like it, keep it or redo the above with what ever $prefix
        # suites you

        # you don't like it
        rm -rf $HOME/does-it-work/foo

fwiw,
David
