Actually there is also:
1a. The developer wrote Makefiles by hand, but also happens to have a
clue, so at some point added DESTDIR support.
You can spot this case, generally, with 'grep DESTDIR Makefile'. Of
course there is the possibility that the developer only had half a
clue, so this is broken, but then it's just a bug to be patched and
handed upstream.
