The default is GRUB_LIBDIR, which is set to pkglibdir at the compile
time.  Your patch would have no effect if anything is compiled and
installed properly.

Maybe you are trying to change prefix during "make install"?  That's not
the best approach.  DESTDIR should be used to install to a temporary
location.

Or maybe you have some other scenario in mind?
