I don't see how this could've been possible. The code doesn't search in the @CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX@/etc, and I've just built MariaDB 10.0.12, and tools aren't reading /usr/local/mariadb/etc/my.cnf file: $ mysqldump --help ... Default options are read from the following files in the given order: /etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf /usr/local/etc/mariadb.DEFAULT/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf ... And 10.0.13 didn't change that. Perhaps you've symlinked /usr/local/mariadb/etc/my.cnf to /etc/my.cnf? Because this was changed in 10.0.13, indeed. Before 10.0.13 MariaDB was reading /etc/my.cnf and /etc/mysql/my.cnf unconditionally. Since 10.0.13 it does that only if you didn't specify INSTALL_SYSCONFDIR or DEFAULT_SYSCONFDIR. If you've explicitly specified where your config files are, MariaDB won't look elsewhere, you can "sandbox" it in a dedicated location and know that it won't look outside of it.
