Actually, that's only for gnustep-make itself (ie, if you're packaging
gnustep-make).  There is no DESTDIR support for packages compiled with
gnustep-make, but that email made me think we ought to add it :-)

Presumably we just need to add

ifneq ($(DESTDIR),)
 GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR := $(DESTDIR)/$(GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR)
endif

to rules.make.  I'll do a bit of testing to see if that works, the commit.
;-)

Thanks
