Why would we have to re-write Makefiles? For most of them, isn't it
just a matter of changing $INSTALL in src/config/Makefile.config?
If /usr/local/bin doesn't exist,
install foo /usr/local/bin
installs foo as the file /usr/local/bin.
pinstall foo /usr/local/bin
creates the directory /usr/local/bin and puts foo in it. I'd want to
change all of the Makefiles to explicitly list the installation target to
avoid any ambiguity.
Also, beware that the default behavior of install-sh is to _move_ the file
to be installed, rather than copying it. This has the unfortunate
side-effect of destroying the source directory.
