/usr/bin/install -d /usr/local/share
   /usr/bin/install: cannot change permissions of `/usr/local/share': 
   Operation not permitted

   On my box, the /usr/local hierarchy is already writeable by my
   usual user account.

This does not mean that you can change the permissions of it.  This is
normal *nix logic; only the owner can change the permissions of a
file, would be quite funny if people who can write to it could...

  (or at least it shouldn't stop the "make"-process).

If you don't like that it stops the make processes, you can use the -k
option to make.  make stops for any program that returns a return
value >0; and any sane program that fails to work returns a value >0.
