seems like the compile step depends on install dirs.  a simple make in a 
subdir fails with:
$ make
mkdir -p "/opt/ltp/testcases/bin"
mkdir: cannot create directory `/opt/ltp': Permission denied
make: *** [/opt/ltp/testcases/bin] Error 1

or if prefix isnt set:
$ make
mkdir -p "/testcases/bin"
mkdir: cannot create directory `/testcases': Permission denied
make: *** [/testcases/bin] Error 1

these are only needed during the install step
