My understanding of the GNU Coding Standards is that DESTDIR should be
honored
for building and installing, but the program is not required to run properly
when run from the staged area.
DESTDIR should have no effect on compilation (i.e. building), its only
use is during `make install'. It should never be used in any other
context than when copying files during `make install` or removing
during `make uninstall'.
