#5272: make install behaviour driven by PATH

 It keeps striking me that `sudo make install` can install the libraries in
 unexpected directory.

 This is because PATH affects where binaries are installed, despite what
 configured at ./configure time.

 My workaround to this is `sudo PATH=$PATH make install` but it doesn't
 feel completely right. Opinion from packagers is welcome.
