This could happen if it adds itself to a sub-directory of
"/share/emacs/site-lisp".  In 'magit' package, for example, it is fixed
by using "lispdir" makeflag.  Since this package uses a full GNU Build
System, there should probably be "--with-lispdir" configure flag.

BTW, I can't apply this patch on the current master.
