It's used during the OpenBSD fake installation -- they set up a
temporary installation hierarchy and make install with, for example,
DESTDIR=/usr/ports/print/lilypond/w-lilypond-2.4.5/fake-i386. This
temporary hierarchy is then used to make a binary package.

Without the patch, some file go to
/usr/ports/..../fake-i386/usr/ports/..../fake-i386, i.e. DESTDIR
seems to be allready contained in local-lilypond_datadir.

Mostly harmless, but maybe other packagers have similar problems.

Ciao,
