That is strange, I thought that installing packages under the default
prefix of /usr/local was the normal way to install development packages.

BTW, my solution for right now will be to use the 'dist-hook' target to
add a stub Makefile to my projects' source tarballs. My stub makefile
will be named Makefile.stub and the relevant lines in Makefile.am will
be:

dist-hook:
        cp Makefile.stub $(distdir)/Makefile

I will post the stub Makefile to this mailing list when it is finished.
