bitkeeper revision 1.1159.223.26 (41f2cdb6LNpheOtPoAKEUn-czlZFig)

Description: use DESTDIR correctly
Standard makefiles always attempt to install to the root(/).  Setting
DESTDIR is the normal way to install to an alternative location.
Setting prefix has the possibility of breaking programs, as the prefix
may have been embedded inside a compiled binary.
