noinst_bin_PROGRAMS = gdbmi_driver
noinst_bindir = $(abs_top_builddir)/progs

Unfortunatly, that doesn't work either.

test -z "/progs" || mkdir -p -- "/progs"
mkdir: cannot create directory `/progs': Permission denied
make[2]: *** [install-noinst_binPROGRAMS] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/bob/cvs/gdbmi/builddir/src'
make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bob/cvs/gdbmi/builddir/src'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

Is this a misuse of the autotools on my part? or a bug in libtool?
