The prefix is already used, see in src/Makefile:
lxpanel_CPPFLAGS = ..... -DPACKAGE_LIB_DIR=\""$(libdir)"\" .....
then in src/plugins.c:
fm_modules_add_directory(PACKAGE_LIB_DIR "/lxpanel/plugins");
i.e. if it was configured with prefix /usr/local then $libdir will be
/usr/local/lib and all the plugins will be searched in the directory
/usr/local/lib/lxpanel/plugins, not in /usr/lib/lxpanel/plugins. You can
test it yourself by using any custom --prefix such as $HOME/lxpanel-test
and you'll see custom plugins will be used, not system ones. :)
