I made a mistake in a recent change to the configure script. It has
since been fixed in CVS, or you can use --prefix=/usr/local to avoid
the problem (if you don't specify a --prefix option, ${prefix}
defaults to NONE; configure changes this to the default setting of
/usr/local, but not until *after* it has already been used to define
INST_DIR).

You should be able to just fix the INST_DIR setting in
include/Make/Platform.make then re-run "make install".
