use
./configure --prefix=$HOME
and the install will go into $HOME/{lib,etc,bin} and so forth. Then
you can avoid this particular set of problems. Of course, you will
need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PATH to include the relevant
directories.
Hopefully, its obvious that you could also use
./configure --prefix=/some/other/place/you/can/write
as well.
