My apologies: I'm not sure where I got the idea you were building on macOS!

In any case, this problem has come up a few times in the past, no doubt for a 
similar reason, most recently in open issue Issue31114. I'm closing this issue 
as a duplicate of that. But be aware that Distutils is now deprecated in 
general and in the upcoming 3.11 feature release, there are major changes to 
getpath and also to begin the process of eliminating the use of Distutils when 
building Python itself, so it is unlikely that any bug fixes for this minor 
wart will be forthcoming for current releases.

But a very simple workaround should be to use --prefix=/usr/local or some other 
path within your chroot environment rather than trying to install in / of the 
chroot.

----------
resolution:  -> duplicate
stage:  -> resolved
status: open -> closed
superseder:  -> 'make install' fails when the configure 'prefix' is '/' and 
DESTDIR is used
