These files are generated by the install(EXPORT) command.  Their
location is a staging area for "make install" to copy to the actual
install destination.  The install destination is used in their
staging location to make sure there are no collisions.

Normally the install(EXPORT) command is given a relative DESTINATION
so the path is not very long.  Are you giving it an absolute
destination?  Why?
