Summary:                    bin install directory configuration
Description: 
It is impossible to set the CMake bin install directory with bootstrap options.
The bin install directory is always <PREFIX>/bin.
If cmake binary is moved to other location, The CMAKE_ROOT could not be find,
because the unique search directory of /Modules/CMake.cmake file is at the same
level of bin directory.

CMake Error: Could not find CMAKE_ROOT !!!
CMake has most likely not been installed correctly.
Modules directory not found in

So it is impossible to have in the same install directory, several CMake binary
of different OS.
For example :
   cmake-3.5.2/bin/centos6.2/cmake
   cmake-3.5.2/bin/ubuntu14.04/cmake

Is it possible to add an option in bootstrap, like --docdir, to set the binary
install directory relative to <PREFIX> ?

Steps to Reproduce: 
do a cmake installation
move the cmake binary
run cmake
