Yes, it is intended, and has to do with the dual nature of the ParaView Mac installation. (It's a bundle app, it's a unix command line tool, you decide...)
Use:DESTDIR=blah make install and it will end up in "$blah/Applications" instead of "/Applications" If we put it where CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX points, it would end up in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin for most people and they would never find it. Not what most people want... If you use DESTDIR, the "/Applications" is prefixed with the DESTDIR value so that you can put it wherever you want. On the other hand, "make package" should work and give you a *.dmg file that has the client app in it that you can drag-n-drop wherever you want, too.
