So now that Dmitry sounded a sober thought, I'll give a one of my own. I would rather see PREFIX respect DESTDIR and go through all the pains of respecting PREFIX. This way we reach a double cause: * ensure PREFIX is respected (this will reveal thousands of erring ports, but it will be worth it) * ensure DESTDIR is respected Also, we won't need to s/PREFIX/TARGETDIR/ anymore, a feat of quite questionable usefullness. For reasons that Dmitry highlighted, we'll need PREFIX_REL and some additional _REL's.
