I think the Mac build in Avogadro 1.1/1.2 was always a little strange in
that it ignores the prefix etc. Back then it wasn't really a use case, and
we didn't appreciate some of the ways in which people might build on the
Mac. Things have improved since then, and on Linux it should work as
expected. I would have to go back and read through the code, but I think it
will require some changes to the CMake logic in the Apple blocks.
