no no: server is a different architecture...

well, common policy is to make outside of the source tree.

It's just an inconvenience, no big problem.  In the case at hand, I did

cd fri-build
/home/rubey/fricas/configure 
make

(i.e., I called configure with an absolute path.  since that path is mounted
also on the server machine, make install worked there.)

There are certainly more severe problems.

If you know how to do configure and makefiles, maybe you could add a rule to
install fricas*.el, when emacs is present...
