If you just `make`, you will have a "usr" directory inside your julia
source directory.  Inside that usr directory is a directory structure very
similar to what would be found in /usr/local, which is where Julia gets
installed when you `sudo make install`.

To run julia from within this other directory, you just need to do one of
the following:

* Run julia directly via `cd <julia_dir>/usr/bin`, and then `./julia`

* Add that bin directory to your path: `export
PATH=$PATH:<julia_dir>/usr/bin`

Where <julia_dir> is the directory that the source code of julia is located
at.  Note that if you put that PATH line in your .bashrc it will get run
automatically when you open a new terminal.
