No, because it is in what _root_ directory you are installing. This
is very useful.

You should have made the prefix to be /usr/local and then used
DESTDIR, like this:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make && make install DESTDIR=/afs/.example.com/sw/@sys
prefix here would become "/afs/.example.com/sw/@sys/usr/local", this
way you can install it where ever you'd like. If you use
DESTDIR/prefix the way it is supposed to be used then things work
quite flawlessly.
