I take that back. It *does* work. Thanks.
What *doesn't* work is this:
%makeinstall DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT
That doesn't work because "%makeinstall" explicitly sets bindir, libdir,
etc. rather than using--and effectively mooting any application
of--DESTDIR. Is there some good reason %makeinstall does that instead of
just using DESTDIR?
