[bug #16371] prefix not followed in make build on linux

[Marc Colosimo]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #16371 (project gnustep):

Well, that sort of helps and maybe the subject line was not clear enough.

- I still think it is a bug for "compile-all" and maybe in general

- Are you saying that configuration files contain no data and  where do the
data files go?

- I was looking up examples of --with-config-path and couldn't find many
examples, however, I did find several that used what I was talking about
$(PREFIX)/...

Also, most of the FAQs say that --prefix variable is the common installation
prefix for all files
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.57/html_node/autoconf_24.html>
(or the architecture-independent portion of a package when it is installed
<http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_14.html>) which I
beleive agrees with my interpretation.
