Although we still have a 'destdir' option to tools/dev/install_files.pl,
we don't have a 'destdir' option to Configure.pl. So I couldn't find a
way to feed something into $(DESTDIR) in the Makefile. Instead, I
relied on the procedure I've been using in some Trac tickets:
perl Configure.pl --prefix=/pseudoinstall

Neither jit_emit.h nor string_private_cstring.h appeared under
pseudoinstall/.

This is still installed:
./lib/pkgconfig/parrot/1.1.0-devel/parrot.pc
But it is just packaging information:
prefix=/pseudoinstall
exec_prefix=/pseudoinstall
libdir=/pseudoinstall/lib
includedir=/pseudoinstall/include

None of the above .c files could be located under pseudoinstall/

In fact, no '.c' files at all were found under pseudoinstall/.
So I think all the original poster's concerns have been addressed. I am
re-closing the ticket.
Thank you very much.
