This implies that the lisp files will be installed below prefix if the
directory exists and it is being added to `load-path'.  But the
configure script calls Emacs with -batch which implies -q.  So if the
directory is added in one's .emacs file to `load-path' the new value
will not be picked up.  Since changing site-start.el and the like will
not be an option for non-privileged users I am wondering how the above
is supposed to work.  Can somebody shed some light on this?

Perhaps we really have to suggest to specify both --prefix and
--with-lispdir?
