On that system, I have

        % cat /home/beebe/.autoconf.config.site
        prefix=$HOME/ia64/local

because I don't have write access to /usr/local.

I configured and built like this:

        prefix=/home/beebe/ia64/local \
        CC=gcc \
        CXX=g++ \
        LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -Wl,-rpath,/home/beebe/local/lib" \
        ./configure && make all check

Thus, my .autoconf.config.site file had the same setting for prefix as
I had in the environment.  Presumably, I should either change
/home/beebe/.autoconf.config.site to read

        test "$prefix" = NONE && prefix=$HOME/ia64/local

or else remove it, and set prefix only from the environment or a
--prefix=$HOME/ia64/local argument to configure?
