Setting DESTDIR will then make the install target to install files in
the chroot dir (most likely to /usr/local/ or the prefix dir inside
chroot) inside the chroot. But the intention is to install into a
directory given by the --prefix variable to `configure'.

Files are installed into $DESTDIR$prefix so setting DESTDIR to / will not
break this.
