But there is no problem to solve AFAICS. I haven't seen anything yet
that you can do with DESTDIR that you cannot do with the existing
prefix mechanism. The only real problem is that the rpm macros
apparently break the prefix stuff; but then it's the responsibility of
the rpm tools to provide a work around (which is what %makeinstall is).
