As I understand tessdata-prefix as well as the tessdata-dir option that you are proposing now specify where tesseract-ocr should look for its data (languages and configs) - does it also - without explicitly mentioning it - specify where the 'tesseract.exe' resides?
The reason I ask is this, I had initially downloaded the 3.02 windows package and installed it. Then I downlaoded the latest svn thru VS2008 and compiled it. They are in two different locations. So, is setting the tessdata-prefix or this new option enough enough for making sure that the correct tesseract executable is used?
