On Suse, Redhat and a few other Linux distributions they like to 
clutter up these directories.

You missed a few:
>From what you included, this could be derived :

./configure --disable-shared --without-rlm_x99_token \
--prefix=/ --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc --exec-prefix=/ \
--bindir=/usr/bin --sbin=/usr/sbin --libexec=/usr/libexec \
--datadir=/usr/share --libdir=/usr/lib --includedir=/usr/include \
--infodir=/usr/share/info --mandir=/usr/share/man && make

I wouldn't modify --oldincludedir= .

You will need to also edit radiusd.conf and the maube the
dictionary file. I suggest using grep to look for other
files in the raddb directory that need to be updated.

Is there any specific reason to have set --disable-shared ?

Have you used ;

./configure --help

to make sure you understand all of the options.

Please note that there may be a more efficient way of 
specifying the changes, but to be sure you will have to 
read the help from configure. Example :


./configure --disable-shared --without-rlm_x99_token \
--prefix=/ --exec-prefix=/usr  && make

All the rest of the directories will be properly allocated.

Because nobody has contributed one.
