That should work just fine. The --prefix is unnecessary here as /usr/local is 
the default prefix.

One minor nit is that I tend avoid to install anything in /usr/local because 
/usr/local is on the default search path of the compiler, which means you can 
accidently pick up other libraries than you expect if you install stuff in 
/usr/local.
