Well you can look in the Makefile to see where it's fixin to put the
binary, EG, you'll see somethin like:
---------
prefix = /usr/local
exec_prefix = ${prefix}
bindir = ${exec_prefix}/bin (so it gets put in /usr/local/bin)
--------
or since you were root when you ran 'make install', you can type
'locate -u' to update the slocate DB, and then 'locate <app>' to see
where it got put. 'Course you can risk editing the Makefile to put the
binary where you want it also.
